Doniphan Co Courthouse
(KNZA)--The Doniphan County Commission rejected a pair of recommendations from the county Planning Commission when they met last week.
One would have establishing regulations for solar energy conversion systems in the county.
The other recommendation would have established more stringent setback requirements for wind turbines.
The proposed changes were intended to regulate larger energy projects for commercial use, not personal private use.
According to the unofficial minutes from their April 28th meeting, the Commission decided instead to have Zoning Administrator Julie Meng and County Attorney Charles Baskins study the procedure to ban commercial wind and solar energy projects in the county.
