<br />Land Use <br /> <br />Agricultural Research <br />The purpose of the Agricultural Research land use is to coincide with the agreement <br />between the City and Cargill. This land use allows for the continued use of the <br />property for animal nutrition and agricultural research and other related activities <br />pursuant to the agreement, while protecting the City's ability to guide other <br />development. Other land uses not consistent with agricultural research require <br />an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan. <br /> <br />Open Water <br />Consistent with the 1995 Plan, this category seeks to identify bodies of water in <br /> <br />the community. <br /> <br />Analysis of Land Use <br />The distribution of uses in the Land Use Plan is illustrated by the chart in Figure <br />5-5. This chart is based on the estimated number of acres in each of the land use <br />categories. These totals consist of both current and future development. <br /> <br />Commercial Reserve- <br /> <br /> <br />Ag Research-877-3% <br />Landfill-I 32-1 Open Space-2,007 -8% <br /> <br />PubliclSemi-Public-S97. <br />2% <br /> <br />Medium Industry-I 76- <br />1% <br /> <br />Ught Industry-804-3 <br /> <br />977-4% <br />Old Town-627-2 <br /> <br />Community <br />Commercial-54-0% <br /> <br />12.745-51 % <br /> <br />Urban Residential- <br /> <br />3.727-15% <br /> <br />Figure 5-5 <br />Distribution of Use in Land Use Plan <br /> <br />B"Il: J.
