• A 40-acre parcel classed as Agricultural (Class 4) in 2005 sold during that year. The property was re-zoned residential and a subdivision approval was granted before January 1, 2006. As of June 2006, the parcel was covered with last year’s stubble. Do the earlier activities indicating a future use change and the lack of use in agricultural meet the rule’s criteria of “incompatible with agricultural use”?
