Review/Action on Renewable Energy Systems
Based on City Council recommendation and the current desire for residents to have renewable energy systems installed at their homes, there is a need to regulate these systems so as to mitigate any negative impacts that may occur to the surrounding property owners. The proposed code is based on West Jordan City Code, and has been modified to reflect the recommendations of the planning commission. The proposed code covers only wind and solar systems, both ground and mounted systems. The proposed code gives design standards for wind and solar systems, regulating setbacks, height, noise levels. Additionally, the planning commission has recommended that roof mounted wind energy systems be prohibited as they would not fit within the desired uses of a residential zone. This ordinance would not have prohibited any existing solar systems from being installed as they currently are. This was approved 3-0 with the only change being the removal of the wording "conditional use" as it doesn't require a conditional use, but an application for a permit.
Discussion
CM Geddes asked when we can have the CARE tax on the ballot again. He was surprised why it was voted down. Mayor Gygi suggested we obtain info from residents on why it was voted down before we decide to put it on the ballot, so we will work on this before next election.
