Unit potential
AGR doesn't set a numeric lot-area-per-unit or density rule in the base code, so unit counts are set case by case (for PUDs, by the individual ordinance).
Notes from the code
Residential density for single-family or mobile homes (§656.331.A.I(a)(14)): 1 du per 100 ac (lots of record 640+ ac); 1 du per 40 ac (160 to <640 ac); 1 du per 10 ac (40-160 ac); 1 du per 2.5 ac (lots under 40 ac). Family homestead partitions are also allowed. Lot rules for all uses (§656.331.A.I(d)): 100 ft wide and 2.5 acres, 'except ... for residential uses' (the wording is ambiguous). Coverage 10% (§656.331.A.I(e)); height 35 ft (§656.331.A.I(g)). As a secondary district, AGR needs a 5-acre minimum lot and a site outside the urban area (§656.350(a)). Temporary farm-labor housing is an accessory use. max_density is left null because the code gives a tiered ratio, not a single du/ac figure.
