Resident asks county to strengthen zoning draft, flags solar language errors
Summary
Judy Prince of Radley told commissioners the posted zoning draft still contains grammatical and substantive errors, said the solar section wrongly includes wind terminology, and urged the county to strengthen enforcement language before approval and to make P&Z revisions public.
At the public comment period, Judy Prince of Radley, Kansas, said she had submitted revisions to county staff and asked that the zoning document be corrected before the March 26 public hearing. "Good morning. Judy Prince, Radley, Kansas," she began, and told commissioners she had seen the draft posted on the Crawford County website and that it still contained both grammatical mistakes and technical inconsistencies.
Prince specifically criticized the solar section for including wind-specific language such as "rotors and blades," and urged the county to add stronger enforcement language so penalties would hold up in court. She said the draft currently "says um it's a $500 daily fine maximum" and worried that, in practice, an operator could write off such fines as an operating cost. Prince asked that any P&Z Board revisions be made public and that there be adequate time for community review before the County Commission votes.
