Commission approves rear‑of‑house solar panels with minimal street visibility
The commission approved a residential solar installation on a property identified as 62 Soul Road (presented as a rear‑roof installation) after the applicant confirmed panels and electrical equipment will be sited on the back of the house and be minimally visible from the street.

Commissioners asked where the electric meter and shutoff would be located; the applicant said those would be on the rear of the house. Commissioners also asked that any visible conduit or equipment be painted to match the siding so it blends with the building’s rear elevation.

A motion accepting the application as presented, with the clarification that panels and equipment would be located on the house’s rear, passed. The commission recorded no objections and encouraged the applicant to ensure final placement is consistent with the submitted plans.
