solar energy

The county's zoning ordinance provides standards for large photovoltaic (PV) solar power plants. It includes a definition for "solar power plant" (§200-5.2.C: Solar Power Plant) and provides development standards for this use, including location, minimum lot size, safety/access, noise, landscaping, permits, and electrical interconnections. Solar power plants are special uses in the agricultural-open space district (§200-5.2.C).
