Voters in Palmyra Township overwhelmingly supported an amendment to the township’s zoning ordinance that restricts utility-scale solar energy installations 437-146 in Tuesday’s special election. “Utility-scale” means that the project would produce power for the electrical grid. Utilities, such as Consumers Energy or DTE Energy, purchase the power from such projects and sell it to their customers. The amendment requires setbacks of 330 feet from the property lines of adjacent neighbors and imposes sound and maximum lot coverage limits.
