When the Reno County Planning Commission meets Thursday, June 20, they will work more on solar regulations in the county that they plan to send up to the Reno County Commission.
On the agenda is discussion on a proposed text amendment to create an article that would prohibit large-scale commercial solar in the zoned area of Reno County.
Also up for discussion and possible action is setting a public hearing date for provisions that would clarify that small scale solar would require a conditional use permit, create regulations for private ground-mounted solar systems as an accessory use, and create the previously named section to prohibit large-scale commercial solar in the zoned areas of the county. A reminder, much of the western half of the county does not fall under these regulations, as it is not zoned.
The Reno County Planning Commission meets at 4:30 p.m. June 20 at the Reno County Public Works building at 600 Scott Boulevard in South Hutchinson.
