Goal 3 - Agricultural Land: To preserve and maintain agricultural lands. Goal 3 is not applicable to the amendments as the subject sites and actions do not affect any agricultural plan designation or use. Goal 3 excludes lands inside an acknowledged urban growth boundary from the definition of agricultural lands. Since the amendments only apply to land entirely within the acknowledged urban growth boundary, Goal 3 is not relevant and the amendments do not affect the area’s compliance with Statewide Planning Goal 3. Goal 4 - Forest Land: To conserve forest lands. Goal 4 is not applicable to the amendments as the subject sites and actions do not affect any forest plan designation or use. Goal 4 does not apply within urban growth boundaries and, therefore, does not apply to the adoption of the amendments. Goal 4 is not relevant and the amendments do not affect the area’s compliance with Statewide Planning Goal 4.

The amendments do not affect a Goal 5 resource. Specifically, the amendments do not create or amend a list of Goal 5 resources, do not amend a plan or code provision adopted in order to protect a significant Goal 5 resource or to address specific requirements of Goal 5, do not allow new uses that could be conflicting uses with a particular Goal 5 resource site, and do not amend the acknowledged Urban Growth Boundary. Therefore, Statewide Planning Goal 5 does not apply to these code amendments.
