Solar Energy

The town's zoning code defines and permits accessory and primary-use "solar photovoltaic facilities" (§6.02).  It permits accessory facilities by right in all zoning districts. It permits primary-use facilities up to 1.25 MW by right in a specific designated location and with a discretionary use permit in all other locations. Standards address design and dimensional requirements, site plan review, technical review, special permit approval criteria, decommissioning, and planning board waivers.
