From the meeting
At its September 8, 2026 meeting, the Town Board adopted Local Law 4 of 2026 for a temporary moratorium on battery energy storage systems. The board said it wanted more guidance on fire response, air emissions, chemical suppression risks, and siting standards before reviewing new facilities. This is a buying trigger for future safety, planning, and code work around BESS proposals, even though no vendor was selected.

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