Whew, that's a tough one. Agland/ garden land won't ever pay developmental prop taxes for sure.
Does this qualify for Greenacres tsx abatement, farming it can get you a kickback on that if ththe ecconomy has put the brakes on development for several years? I don't know the details on it, but worth looking into. The tax break can be more than the rent ever will be.
'Garden' land by a city is so different than 'crop' land out in the country, I just don't know what to say on the value. Small parcel like that would be worth less out in the country, might not apply for a garden deal. Trees around it decrease the farm value, again might not apply for garden. So many variables.
Will they get a longer term lease, 3 years, so they can set up fertility better over a multi-year deal, then it should be worth more to them. If you are year to year, then probably worth less. If you can yank it away on a moment's notice for building, then they are doing you a favor to keep the weeds down, not much value at all.
Garden land can be far more profitable per acre than farm land, but it's all in the labor & effort involved, your land is probably poorer so worth less. An odd contradiction. ;)

We thought we could get by with this since the engine ran perfectly and would not need any internal work. After the cleanup and painting was done, we began reassembly and finally came to t
