Summary

The board tabled consideration of a commercial solar energy facility ordinance so the state's attorney can attend a special meeting and finalize legal review before any approval.

Discussion of the proposed commercial solar energy facility ordinance ended with the board voting to table the item until the state's attorney can attend a special meeting. One member said, "I think we table it, but it's important enough that if the state's attorney can attend a special meeting, that we get approved before August," and the board agreed to hold a special meeting if counsel could attend.

Members emphasized that the board did not intend to change local policy without legal review and agreed to post any required notices so timing would allow an August action if counsel attended a special session. The item was tabled by voice vote and will be revisited when the county's legal counsel can participate.
