From the meeting
The draft zoning ordinance created rules for solar energy systems (SES), wind energy systems (WES), and large energy storage systems. It allows some uses by right and others by special use or conditional review, depending on district and scale. This is a clear pre-development signal for renewable developers and engineering teams looking at township sites.
The document does not name a specific project, but it does define where future energy projects can proceed.

A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
