What else applies

  • S2 '2. Agricultural' C in GC, NC, DC. The Agricultural district (Table 7.A) lists many crop rows as P, but its zone code is not given in the packet, so those cells are left out.
  • Not covered here: CRC and I (Table 6.A) and the Agricultural district (Table 7.A) have no shelter row. Overlay zones and specific plans can also change the answer.
