HUTCHINSON, Kan. — After the decision following a public hearing Monday by the Reno County Planning Commission to send the Board of County Commissioners a recommendation not to ban solar in the zoned areas of Reno County, the Board of County Commissioners is going to give itself some time to look at the record before making a final decision.
The board plans to have a study session on the solar topic on Sept. 11 and then an agenda item on that same topic on Sept. 25.
The board wanted to have both Public Works Director Don Brittain and County Planner Mark Vonachen available for questions and both are not available either one meeting day or the other in August, so the commission is pushing the decision out to give itself more time to read the record as entered at the planning commission and then hash it out through September.
