Document Description
A Conditional Use Permit application (CUP25-0004) is proposed to allow the operation of a special events venue accommodating a maximum of 150 guests up to 50 events per year within the General Agricultural (AG-20) zoning district, which requires a minimum parcel size of 20 acres. Events will be held primarily within an existing 4,800-square-foot Agricultural Barn, with limited use of the surrounding outdoor area for ceremonies. The venue will host private events such as weddings, anniversaries, family reunions, non-profit gatherings, memorial services, birthday celebrations, and similar occasions. The maximum number of events allowed is 50 per year. While events may occur up to seven days a week, most are expected to take place on weekends.
