On March 22, 2017, Lexington-Fayette County, Kentucky adopted Chapter 26 of its Code of Ordinances establishing the Rural Land Management framework. The chapter defines key terms and establishes policies for agricultural preservation, including definitions for active farms, agricultural production, conservation easements, and development rights that restrict property division to 40-acre minimum tracts. The ordinance provides the regulatory foundation for the county's rural land conservation program, which allows landowners to sell conservation easements to preserve agricultural and natural lands.
