The majority of the Petition Area is not being <br />used for agricultural purposes. There are a few lots which are <br />used for limited grazing. A very small portion of the Petition <br />Area is designated "Other Important Agricultural Lands" by the <br />State Department of Agriculture®s ALISH system. None of the <br />Petition Area is designated by the Land Study Bureau as Class A <br />or B soils. The Petition area is designated either Class VII or <br />VIII by the United States Department of Agriculture, Soil <br />Conservation Service. Both soil types have very severe <br />limitations that make the Petition Area unsuited to cultivation. <br />Based on the soil classifications and from an agricultural <br />resource perspective, there will be no adverse impact to existing <br />and proposed agricultural operations should the Petition Area be <br />reclassified into the Urban District. <br />
