Sec. C13-20. Annual agricultural preserve questionnaire.

By December 31 of each year, the Office of the Assessor mails an agricultural preserve questionnaire to the mailing address of the owner or other person identified on the Assessor's roll as responsible for the payment of property taxes for the parcel. Each owner of contracted land shall return the completed questionnaire to the Office of the Assessor by the following April 10. The Office of the Assessor will provide a copy of the non-confidential information on each returned questionnaire, and a list of parcels for which no questionnaire was returned, to the Planning Office. Those properties for which a completed questionnaire was not returned may be subject to an investigation by the Planning Office and/or Agricultural Commissioner regarding whether the parcel is in compliance with the contract, the Williamson Act, and other state and local laws, regulations, ordinances and guidelines. A land owner who fails to return the completed questionnaire by the April 10 deadline may be charged an investigation fee in an amount established by resolution of the Board of Supervisors.

(Ord. No. NS-1203.113, § 1, 5-23-06)
