Advisory board meeting Economic development incentivesFarmland and open space

What's on this agenda

Orange County's Economic Development Advisory Board meets for a presentation on Sonark Farms and a tour of it. That is the only substantive item; the rest of the agenda is the roll call, minutes, department updates and open discussion among board members.

This account is written from the item list the county published. The agenda document was not reachable when it was written, so what Sonark Farms will present is not on file here.
