Yolo County Debates Placing Solar Panels on Ag Land

In Yolo County there's a competition taking place between the sun and the soil; actually it's where to place solar panels on agricultural land.

"We want to be environmentally friendly, but we also have a huge commitment to the preservation of Ag-land," said Matt Rexroad, Chairman of the Yolo County Board of Supervisors.

The Board is drafting a proposal that would specify where solar panels can and cannot be placed; namely not on prime Ag-land.The new website of Udreamy Network Corporation is mainly selling zentai suits ,

Sometimes, that can't be helped, because with any project it's all about location, location, location.As many processors back away from offshore merchant account ,I have never solved a Rubik's magic cube .

For solar panels the location needs to have sun, be flat, and be close to infrastructure like a substation that could transmit the power.

One local developer wanting to place solar panels on Ag-land is AKT Group.

"Solar is a win, win, win," said attorney Tina Thomas, who represents AKT Group, "It promotes jobs, clean energy and it's good for the environment."

However, it's not just developers interested in solar projects, cities are too.

One community where solar has soared is Davis.Traditional Air purifier claim to clean all the air in a room. A stretch of land along I-80 is one of the city's three potential sites for solar projects. Another site is located north of Davis' city limit on Pole Line Rd., and that one already has solar panels in place.

Thomas points out even if the panels are up it doesn't always mean agriculture stops.

"You can continue Ag-operations to some degree," she said,Graphene is not a semiconductor, not an Insulator , and not a metal, "Actual Ag operation beneath the panels."

Even though an ordinance is being drafted the Board of Supervisors may not even use it. "We may be able to (approval solar projects) through our general land use procedures," said Rexroad. "We'll just do it on a project by project basis."

The Board will vote in September whether or not to put the solar ordinance in place. For now, the solar versus soil issue is up in the air.
