Final Site Plan Approved For Solar Project

Despite Kent County’s zoning laws prohibiting utility scale solar arrays, the county’s Planning Commission unanimously approved Morgnec Solar LLC’s final site plan for a 45-megawatt solar project on March 6, acknowledging they had no choice under Maryland state law. The Kent County News reports the commission’s approval came after the Planning Commission stressed that their own county zoning does not permit utility scale solar installations, but that they were bound by state requirements.
