The following standards shall apply to pole-mounted solar energy systems.
(A) Setbacks for pole-mounted solar systems shall be one time, plus one foot the height of the pole structure with the collectors being a part of the structure as measured from the collector at the highest point.
(B) Pole-mounted solar energy systems shall not exceed 20 feet in height when oriented at maximum tilt.
(C) The pole structure shall be designed with a monopole and without guy-wires or support structures.
(D) Pole-mounted solar systems shall not cause shadow flicker upon any neighboring primary occupied structure.
(Ord. 2017-002, passed 6-13-2017) Penalty, see § 152.99
The following standards shall apply to ground-mounted solar energy systems.
(A) Setbacks for ground-mounted solar systems shall be one time, plus one foot the height of the pole structure with the collectors being a part of the structure as measured from the collector at the highest point.
(B) Ground-mounted solar energy systems shall not exceed 20 feet in height when oriented at maximum tilt.
(Ord. 2017-002, passed 6-13-2017) Penalty, see § 152.99
The following standard shall apply to wall-mounted solar energy systems: In residential zoning districts, wall-mounted solar energy systems shall cover no more 25% of any exterior wall facing a front yard.

The following standards shall apply to photovoltaic solar energy systems.
(A) No grid-intertie photovoltaic solar energy system shall be installed until documentation has been given to the Zoning Administrator that the owner has notified the utility company of the customer’s intent to install an interconnected customer-owned generator. Documentation may consist of an interconnection agreement or a written explanation from the utility provider or contractor outlining why an interconnection agreement is not necessary. Off-grid systems are exempt from this requirement.
(B) Photovoltaic solar energy system components must have an Underwriters Laboratory (UL) listing and solar hot water systems must have a Solar Rating and Certification Corporation (SRCC) rating.
(Ord. 2017-002, passed 6-13-2017) Penalty, see § 152.99
Reflecting solar energy systems are not permitted.
