Agricultural lease rates on city farmland
Summary
The city leases about 105 acres of farmland to local farmers while it waits to develop it. Rates go up $20 to $150 per acre — still below state and county averages — with one parcel on a shorter lease because of the coming solar farm.

Impact analysis
A $20-per-acre increase on roughly 105 leased acres, locked in for three years but terminable if development proceeds.
Local farmers get predictable three-year rates below market, and the city gets fair-market lease revenue on land awaiting development.
