Model Zoning Text

This model large-scale solar zoning text was drafted by Greene County Regional Planning Staff in response to rapid solar development that is occurring throughout the county and is designed to provide aid in regulating these developments. This model zoning text is based on current best practices from the American Planning Association’s Planning Advisory Service and has been tailored for Greene County’s specific needs and existing regulations.
