RELATING TO LAND USE. Defines prime farmlands and requires the land use commission to specifically consider prime farmlands as a factor in decisions related to agricultural district boundaries and permissible uses within the agricultural districts. Prohibits the commission from taking prime farmlands out of agricultural districts if the land is used for agricultural purposes for at least two years prior to the boundary amendment petition or has a high capacity for intensive agricultural uses. Prohibits petitions for boundary amendments that cover substantially the same request as previously submitted to and subsequently denied by the commission or voluntarily withdrawn during a certain period of time after the denial or withdrawal, with certain exceptions.
