KLZA--Pawnee County Commissioners approved a resolution during their March 4 meeting regarding wind and solar zoning.
The resolution is a 12-month moratorium on accepting, granting or recommending a conditional use permit for the construction of commercial wind energy systems or commercial solar energy systems in the county.
The moratorium was effective as of March 4, 20025.
The Commissioners have directed the Pawnee County Planning and Zoning Commission to review the county zoning regulations, and to conduct any hearings, if necessary , and to make specific recommendations for the county zoning regulations dealing with commercial wind energy systems and commercial solar energy systems.
The resolution states that it is probable that wind energy systems and commercial solar energy systems will be interested in locating in Pawnee County and that the County Board wishes to review regulations.
