AG Agricultural Zoning in Moore, OK — Allowed Uses & Standards
AG Agricultural District is the lowest-density zoning in Moore. It applies to the city's remaining undeveloped acreage, primarily on the eastern and southern edges, and is intended to maintain large-lot rural character pending future development. Most AG land in Moore is in transition — agricultural operations on land that may eventually be re-zoned for residential subdivision or commercial use along major arterials.
AG allows single-family detached dwellings on large lots, agricultural operations, and limited commercial uses ancillary to the agricultural use. Density is the lowest in any Moore district — minimum 1-acre lots are typical. Many AG parcels in Moore are 5-10 acres or larger.
AG is also where you find Moore's rural transitional uses: stables, kennels, plant nurseries, and agricultural retail (pumpkin patches, corn mazes during October). Limited livestock is permitted on lots over 1 acre. Annexed parcels often retain their AG zoning until a developer petitions for re-zoning.

Verify zoning before you design
Permitly's zoning lookup cross-references Moore Code of Ordinances — Chapter 30 (Zoning), Chapter 6 (Buildings) against your project so you know what you can build before spending on design.
