THE 30-SECOND BRIEF
Lincoln County is holding a public hearing and separate discussion on multiple amendments to its zoning code related to non-accessory solar energy systems. This suggests the county is refining where and how commercial or utility-scale solar can be sited and permitted. As the rules take shape, staff may need technical, legal, or planning support for drafting language, mapping impacts, and reviewing future applications.
Two agenda items address solar: a general zoning amendment hearing and a specific request to amend several sections on non-accessory solar energy systems.
