(KMZA)--A policy has been developed for Seneca residents who want to provide some of their own electricity through solar or other sources.
The Seneca City Council at their June 5 meeting approved an ordinance establishing a policy for how private alternative energy generation will be allowed to connect to the city’s power distribution system.
The Council also approved a resolution establishing a new residential rate for private generators.
The policy was developed in response to a resident’s installation of solar electric panels.
In other business, the Council unanimously approved an ordinance prohibiting tobacco and electronic cigarette use on all city-owned recreational areas, parks and playgrounds. It does not include the Spring Creek Golf Course.
An ordinance was also approved to remove the 5 mill tax levy cap for the Seneca Library.
