Streetsboro extends solar moratorium while it finalizes zoning changes

- Wendy DiAlesandro

Anyone wishing to go solar in Streetsboro will have to wait: City Council on Aug. 11 extended its moratorium on solar facilities another six months while it finalizes an amendment to the zoning code.

The moratorium does not affect solar electric generation facilities designated by state law as “major utility facilities.” Those installations, which the city has no authority to control, can generate at least 50 megawatts annually.
