There the city asks for “a maximum average calculated density of one dwelling unit per acre.”
Farther south is the Rural context area, which “will continue to support rural and agricultural lands and serve essential conservation functions,” the city’s context areas page says. The same page calls agriculture “the city’s third-largest industry, following tourism and defense.”
