BoardSolar Citizen Advisory Committee Advisory Committee Meeting
The committee reviewed the draft solar zoning ordinance, focusing on language refinement and regulatory scope. Key discussions included the protection of prime farmland and rural character, the potential ambiguity of terms like 'may' versus 'shall,' and the recommendation to separate battery storage regulations into a distinct, dedicated ordinance rather than including them within the solar ordinance. The committee also addressed concerns regarding the interpretation of ambiguous clauses and established a process for providing comments to the Planning Commission.
