A-26-03 Sunrise Solar community-energy generating facility visual barrier variance

Description

Sunrise Solar asked to skip the required six-foot visual buffer for about 665 feet along the rear property line of its administratively approved community solar site. Staff recommended approval because the adjacent owner supports it and a buffer near the ag airstrip would endanger pilots.

Impact summary

If granted, the rear 665 feet of the solar site would have no screening fence, changing what neighbors to the south see — though the closest neighbor asked for exactly that.
