FROM: Supervisor Tom Torlakson Contra
Costa}
DATE: April 30, 1985 County
SUBJECT: "RIGHT TO FARM" ORDINANCE
SPECIFIC REQUEST(S) OR RECOMMENDATION(S) & BACKGROUND AND JUSTIFICATION
BACKGROUND INFORMATION: At a recent CALAFCO conference,
several other counties shared the fact that they have adopted "Right
to Farm" Ordinances. This recognizes the valuable contribution of the
agricultural business to the community and the county agricultural
general plan areas. The attached letter from Robert Braitman,
Executive Officer of the Ventura LAFCO, and the sample ordinance I
believe such an ordinance would be a good idea for our county.
RECOMMENDED ACTION: Refer to the Community Development
Department and the Agricultural Advisory Committee. As part of the
review and analysis of this concept, contact should be made with the
Contra Costa Farm Bureau and the Cattlemen' s Association.
