Currituck County

Description

Amended special use permit to reconfigure the 150-megawatt solar farm around wetlands discovered on site. Approved 6-0 over neighbor concerns about transformer fires and screening.

Impact summary

No new power generation, but the fenced footprint shifts and expands; neighbors get TRC-backed conditions, well monitoring and buffering requirements.
