iminor@dailypress.net ESCANABA TOWNSHIP Plans for a large-scale solar generation facility in Escanaba Township are on hold following a decisions by the township’s board to impose a moratorium on large solar generation facilities. The decision was made through an ordinance passed by the board at a special meeting, Jan. 25. However, attendance at the virtually-held special meeting was low because notice for the meeting was only posted on the township’s website and at the hall the day prior to the meeting, which was a Sunday. Both board and planning commission meetings with discussions of solar in the township have been heavily attended and often heated, with in-person meetings drawing well over 150 residents prior to the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. In order to better inform the public of the board’s decision to enact the moratorium, the township’s planning commission announced the board’s actions during its regular meeting Monday, Feb. 1.
