Calhoun County Board of Commissioners · August 20, 2026

Summary

The board approved a road‑use agreement intended to ensure repairs and protections for county roads affected by the Maple Run Solar commercial project in Lee Township; the measure passed on a 6–0 roll call (one excused).

The Calhoun County Board of Commissioners approved a Road Department road‑use agreement with Maple Run Solar to compensate for roadway damage associated with construction of the large commercial solar project in Lee Township. The agreement, approved as Res.097‑2026, passed on a roll call vote: YES — 6 (Comrs. King, French, Oo, Strowbridge, Saxton and Tompkins); Excused — 1 (Comr. Morehart).

County staff said the contract covers roadway repairs and improvements before, during and after construction. Assistant County Administrator Doug Ferrall said the agreement “covers roadway repairs and improvements before, during and after construction,” and Road Department Managing Director Kristine Parsons said the agreement provides protections for residents throughout the project and upon its completion. Vice Chair Matt Saxton clarified the county action addresses only roadway matters; the solar development permit was approved separately by Lee Township.
