Bill Summary
Limits speculative development of large warehouses until 500,000 acres of farmland are preserved under farmland preservation programs.
AI Summary
This bill limits speculative development of large warehouses (defined as any site, building, room, structure, or facility of at least 100,000 square feet used primarily for the storage of goods intended for sale) on active farmland until the State Agriculture Development Committee catalogs 500,000 acres of preserved farmland under farmland preservation programs. It allows an application for a large warehouse to be considered if the applicant commits to preserving an area of farmland equal in size to the proposed development. The bill will expire once the 500,000 acres of preserved farmland is reported by the State Agriculture Development Committee.
