(A) Upon the division of any land by parcel map or subdivision map, where the subject land is adjacent to agricultural operations, a disclosure statement, as prescribed by the Department, shall be recorded at the time of recording the map and shall become a permanent disclosure statement on the deed to the owner or prospective owner stating that the subject property is adjacent to farming operations and, if operated consistent with this title, the farming operations have the right to continue.
(B) The disclosure statement shall read as follows: “If the property in which you are taking an interest is located adjacent to agricultural lands or operations, or is included within an area zoned for agricultural purposes, you may be subject to inconveniences or discomfort arising from such operations including, but not limited to: noise, odors, fumes, dust, smoke, insects, operations of machinery (including aircraft) during any 24-hour period, storage and disposal of manure, and the application (by spraying or otherwise) of chemical fertilizers, soil amendments, herbicides and pesticides. One or more of the inconveniences described herein may occur as a result of any such agricultural operation which is in conformance with existing laws and regulations and accepted customs and standards. If you live adjacent to an agricultural operation, you should be prepared to accept such inconveniences and discomfort as a normal and necessary aspect of living in a city with a strong rural character and an active agricultural sector in the region.”
