A. 
Description and purpose. The primary purpose of this district is to maintain, preserve, and enhance agricultural uses and agricultural lands historically exhibiting high crop yields as detailed and for such timeframe specified in the Comprehensive Plan, the Sauk Prairie Intergovernmental Cooperation Agreement, and the Sauk County Farmland Preservation Plan. As a matter of policy, it is hereby determined that the highest and best use of these lands is agriculture. The A-P district is a certified farmland preservation zoning district under Chapter 91, Wis. Stats. Further, lands in this district will only be approved for rezoning where the criteria in § 365-116 are met.
B. 
Permitted, conditional and temporary uses. See the Matrix of Uses set forth in Attachment 365b. To meet requirements as a certified farmland preservation zoning district under Chapter 91, Wis. Stats., no conditional use permit shall be granted in the A-P district unless the Plan Commission (or Joint Committee if within the Extraterritorial Zoning Jurisdiction) finds that the use authorized thereby meets the criteria in § 365-94 F. In addition:
(1) 
Each "community garden" and "general farming (not otherwise listed)" use shall meet the definition of an agricultural use included in § 365-10.
(2) 
Each "on-site agricultural retail" use shall meet the associated definition in § 365-9 and the following additional criteria:
(a) 
Packaging and equipment used to store, display, package or carry said agricultural products for the convenience of the operation or its customers (such as egg cartons, baskets, containers, and bags) is permitted.
(b) 
The maximum total gross floor area of a structure or a combination of structures dedicated primarily to the on-site agricultural retail use shall be 1,500 square feet in area.
(c) 
All structures used for an on-site agricultural retail use shall all be an integral part of, or incidental to, the agricultural use on the property, and shall be set back at least 100 feet from any residential zoning district.
(3) 
Except for a facility used for providing veterinary services primarily to livestock including the sale of supplies and pharmaceuticals related to animal husbandry, each "bed-and-breakfast," "day-care - family home (not more than eight children)," "commercial animal service or boarding," "home occupation and professional home office," "outdoor assembly," and "seasonal outdoor sales of farm products" use shall:
(a) 
Be conducted by the owner or operator of the farm.
(b) 
Require no buildings, structures, or improvements other than a farm residence and/or another building, structure, or improvement that is an integral part of, or incidental to, an agricultural use on the farm.
(c) 
Employ no more than one full-time equivalent employee aside from the owner or operator (four for each commercial animal services or boarding, outdoor assembly, or seasonal outdoor sales of farm products use).
(d) 
Not impair or limit the current or future agricultural use of the farm or other protected farmland.
(4) 
Each "nonmetallic mineral extraction" use shall meet the criteria in § 365-95C.
(5) 
No historic structure may be relocated from outside of the A-P zoning district to inside of the A-P zoning district unless it meets the definition of a "farm residence" under § 365-10.
(6) 
"Passive outdoor public recreation" uses shall be limited to undeveloped natural resource and open space areas with no buildings.
(7) 
"Municipal earth and sanitary landfill operations" shall be operated by a governmental, institutional, religious, or nonprofit organization.

A. 
Description and purpose. The A-H Agricultural Holding District is intended to preserve lands in agricultural lands and open space until ripe for planned urban development. The Comprehensive Plan and Sauk Prairie Intergovernmental Cooperation Agreement specify the desired type of urban development and permitted timeframe for such development in areas zoned A-H. Rezoning from AH to another district, extension of public utilities and services, and annexation to the Village must occur in advance of urban development. Because lands in the A-H district is not expected to develop with urban uses as soon as lands zoned A-T, a slightly broader range of agricultural and related land uses is allowed in the A-H district.
B. 
It is intended that the status of all areas in this district be reviewed by the appropriate planning bodies no less frequently than every five years in order to determine whether, in light of current land development trends, there should be a transfer of all or any part of such areas to some other appropriate use district. Any such review will consider the need for permitting other uses on such land, the nature of the use or uses to be permitted, and the cost and availability of the public services and facilities which will be necessitated by such new use or uses. As a matter of policy, rezoning only to those districts identified for those lands in the Comprehensive Plan will be approved.
C. 
Permitted, conditional and temporary uses. See the Matrix of Uses set forth in Attachment 365b.
D. 
Dimensional requirements. See the Schedule of Regulations set forth in Article IX.
E. 
Standards for rezoning. Those areas contiguous to the A-T Zoning District shall be rezoned as additional A-T areas are annexed to the Village and as additional A-T area is needed.
A. 
Description and purpose. The A-T Agricultural Transition District is intended to reserve agricultural lands and open space for near-term urban development. As detailed the Comprehensive Plan and Sauk Prairie Intergovernmental Cooperation Agreement, annexation and urban development may occur in areas zoned A-T at any time at the request of property owners. Rezoning from A-T to another district, extension of public utilities and services, and annexation to the Village must occur in advance of urban development. Because the A-T district is contiguous to developed lands within the Village, the range of allowable land uses in advance of urban development is the narrowest of the agricultural districts. The only permissible uses in this area prior to annexation are those that maintain agricultural lands, woodlands, and wetlands.
