From the meeting
At its September 28, 2026 meeting, the Planning Board said it should begin considering solar overlay districts by first identifying areas to exclude from development. The board discussed excluding steep grade, wetlands, forest cover, farms, and densely populated areas. This is early planning for solar photovoltaic installation rules, and the next useful conversation is about map-based constraints and bylaw drafting support.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
