The 5-year term would begin with the first agricultural promotional event which shall not occur until the lavender crops have been planted and have matured to a harvest-ready state, the grazing has commenced, and the olive trees have been planted. A maximum of three (3) 200-person events, three (3) 150-person events, three (3) 100-person events, and three (3) 50-person events, are permitted to promote the lavender agricultural processing operation and other products cultivated and raised on site. An existing two-story 5,020 gross square foot agricultural barn structure will be used to accommodate a 3,575 square foot lavender processing area, a 215 square foot farm retail sales area, two restrooms, and 95 square feet of accessory storage area. A 690 square foot area of the second floor of the barn will continue to be used as a private office for the owner, and an adjacent 85 square foot area will be a bathroom. Project construction activities include the construction of a 2,000+/- foot-long new access road leading from D Street to the agricultural barn and 90 parking spaces in mowed and gravel areas with 10 new paved parking spaces including five ADA parking spaces near the barn site.
