From the meeting
The draft law would allow Tier 2 battery energy storage systems only by special use permit in the Agricultural zoning district. Applicants must submit surveys, traffic and noise studies, decommissioning plans, fire safety plans, and a bond reviewed by the Town Engineer and Town Attorney. The Town Board would hold a public hearing and act within 62 days after the hearing.
This is a live pre-construction gateway for BESS developers and the consultants who support them.
