From the meeting
At its August 10, 2026 meeting DTE and township officials discussed solar overlay, PA116, restrictions, lot sizes, vegetation, decommissioning, and water concerns for a proposed utility solar project. DTE said it preferred to continue locally and would provide more information, while the board raised zoning and farmland concerns. The project remains in planning, and the next step is local review and information exchange before any permitting path is settled.
