County approves two 18‑month extensions for New Energy Equity large solar permits in Kasota Township
Summary
The Le Sueur County Board of Commissioners voted 5‑0 to extend two conditional use permits allowing New Energy Equity to build two 1‑megawatt large solar energy systems in Kasota Township for an additional 18 months, per Planning & Zoning staff recommendation.
The Le Sueur County Board of Commissioners voted unanimously to grant two 18‑month extensions of conditional use permits for New Energy Equity to establish and operate two 1‑megawatt Large Solar Energy Systems in Kasota Township. Aaron Stubbs, Planning & Zoning Administrator, presented the extensions as items carried forward from prior approvals and recommended continuance.
Both motions passed via roll call vote 5‑0: the first extension for PCCUP‑000203‑2024 and Extension # PCCUP000865‑2025 (originally approved June 25, 2024 and extended April 1, 2025) and the second extension for PCCUP‑000204‑2024 and Extension # PCCUP000866‑2025 covering a separate parcel in Section 16 of Kasota Township. Commissioners Steve Rohlfing and David Preisler were among those who moved and seconded the motions in sequence as the board processed the planning items.
The minutes record the board’s action approving the extensions; conditions and any outstanding permit requirements were addressed in the Planning & Zoning record but are not detailed in the board summary. The approvals allow the applicant additional time to meet permit conditions before construction proceeds.
