areas within the County. The requested zone change conforms to the LUPAG Map, which designates the area for Orchard uses. Lands designated for Orchard uses include those agricultural lands which though rocky in character and content, support productive macadamia nuts, papaya, citrus and other similar agricultural products.. This proposal to subdivide the subject property into six parcels, approximately 3 acres in size, is consistent with the orchard designation. The proposed A-3a zoning will conform to the following goals, policies and standards of the Land Use Element of the General Plan: • Designate and allocate land uses in appropriate proportions and mix and in keeping with the social, cultural, and physical environments of the County. • Zoning requests shall be reviewed with respect to General Plan designation, district goals, State Land Use District, compatibility with adjacent zoned uses, availability of public service and utilities, access, and public need. • Rural-style residential-agricultural developments,such as new small-scale rural communities or extensions or existing rural communities, shall be encouraged in appropriate locations. • Protect and encourage the intensive utilization of the County's important agricultural lands.
