Focus Group Meeting #1
At this meeting, we focused on drafted Tiered Winery Ordinance changes being proposed. We had participation from community members who are residents in RR zones, community planning sponsor groups, business associates, agritourism partners, and agricultural resource organizations. Additionally, we went over both noise buffers/setbacks for amplified live music and outdoor seating capacity for Boutique Wineries.
The goal of this meeting was to obtain feedback on draft changes to the Winery Ordinance that fosters a thriving agricultural economy while maintaining harmony with nearby residents and preserving open spaces.
