Can September 6, 2001,American Forest Product, Inc. the new owners of Assessor Parcel Number (APN) 205-030-003 filed a letter through their attorney requesting to amend Land Conservation Contract No.6-72 to update and revise the land .use and structures identified on the subject parcel. Subsequent to reviewing this request, the Community Development Department determined that it would be preferable to rescind that portion of Land Conservation Contract No. 6-72 affecting the subject parcel and to enter into a new Land Conservation Contract to reflect a proposed subdivision, new agricultural uses and related structures that American Forest Product, Inc. was simultaneously pursuing through a separate Minor Subdivision application (County File: MS#00-0015) pending before the County. On February 25, 2002, the County Zoning Administrator approved a minor subdivision (County File: NIS#00-0015)dividing APN: 205-030-003 into three new parcels of eighty, eighty-six and eighty acres, respectively. RESOLVED, pursuant to Section 66474.4 of the California Government Code, the Board of Supervisors finds that the approved minor subdivision affecting land subject to the California Land Conservation Act of 1965 (Williamson Act) would neither result in the creation of parcels too small to sustain agricultural use of the lan,0 nor result in residential development not incidental to the commercial agricultural use of the land. RESOLVED, pursuant to Section 51254 of the California Government Code, the Board of Supervisors RESCINDS Land Conservation Contract No. 6-72 as it affects APN; 205-030-003 owned by American Forest Products, Inc.-,-and AUTHORIZES the Board Chair to execute a new contract, Land Conservation Contract No. 01-0006,with American Forest Products, Inc. for the two hundred forty-six acres within APN: 205-030-003. 2002/282 The Board further DIRECTS the Community Development Department to forward a copy of this resolution and the executed version of the new contract, Land Conservation Contract No. 01-0006, to the California Department of Conservation and the Office of County Assessor. I hereby certify that this is a true and correct copy of an action taken and entered on the minutes of the Board of Supervisors on the date shown.

It is understood by the parties that the existence of an opportunity for another use of said land shall not be sufficient reason for cancellation of the land use restrictions imposed herein and that the uneconomic character of the existing use will be considered only if* there is no other reasonable or comparable agricultural use to which the land maybe put .

New Contracts Upon Division. In the event the land under this Contract is divided, a Contract identical to the Contract then covering the original parcel shall be executed by owner on each parcel created by the division at the time of the division. Any agency making an order of division or the County which has jurisdiction shall require, as a condition of the approval of the division, the execution of the Contracts provided for in this 3 section, provided, however, that failure of owner to execute Contracts upon division shall not affect the obligations of the hears, successors and assigns of Owner as established in Section 16 . 16 . Contract to Run with Land. The within Contract shall run with the land described herein, and upon division, to all parcels created therefrom, and shall be binding upon the heirs, successors, and assigns of the Owner. 17 . Consideration. owner shall not receive any payment from County in consideration of the obligations imposed hereunder, it being recognized and agreed that the consideration for the execution of the within Contract is the substantial public benefit to be derived therefrom and the advantage which will accrue to Owner as a result of the effect on the method of determining the assessed value of land described herein and any reduction therein due to the imposition of the limitations on its use contained herein. 18 . Income and Expense Information. The Owner shall annually furnish the County Assessor with such information as the Assessor may require to determine the valuation of the Owner' s land. 19 .
