The Board of Supervisors has determined there is a need to establish and maintain zoning classifications to be applied to rural areas of the County which are now devoted to agricultural use but may undergo a transition to urban development in the future. The Board of Supervisors in creating these zones intends to establish long term holding zones which:
a. Are appropriate in the Agricultural-Urban Reserve, Agricultural Recreation Reserve, Recreational, and Industrial land use categories shown on the Sacramento County General Plan.
b. Provide for agricultural uses during the planning period of the General Plan and protect these uses from the encroachment of urban development and related uses which are incompatible with the agricultural use of the land.
c. Provide reserve areas for future urban, recreational or industrial uses and protect these areas from the encroachment of uses which are incompatible with the ultimate planned uses indicated
on the Sacramento County General Plan.
