(B) District A1 Agricultural; use regulations. There exists within and on the fringes of the city land which is presently used for agricultural purposes and to which all urban services are not yet available and such land should appropriately be continued in agricultural use until needed for urban purposes in conformity with the orderly growth of the city. The A1 Agricultural District, is created to provide an appropriate zoning for those lands expected to remain in agricultural or "undeveloped" use for several years. The uses permitted in the A1 Agricultural District, include normal farming, ranching and gardening activities except for any form of animal husbandry that may be specifically prohibited by ordinance. It is anticipated that all of the A1 Agricultural District, will be changed to urban uses and other zoning categories as the area within the corporate limits becomes fully developed. Newly annexed territory is zoned as A1 Agricultural District, unless the City Council, at the time of annexation, designates other zoning categories for that area.
