The Moratorium Committee convenes to discuss amendments to the Battery Energy Storage System (BESS) ordinance. Key points include the removal of agricultural residential land from permissible zoning districts for BESS projects and the inclusion of light manufacturing zones, with an emphasis on ensuring public safety and minimizing impacts on residential areas. The committee also considers additional studies on visual, environmental, and stormwater impacts. There is extensive discussion on the implications for local infrastructure, emergency response, and community safety, with input from township residents expressing concerns about BESS proximity to schools and residential zones. The meeting concludes with plans for further analysis and the next steps in ordinance development.
