Birmingham Township supervisors decided not
to oppose two zoning applications scheduled for the Zoning Hearing Board on May
3.
Earl Stoltzfus, of Advanced Energy Solutions
on Route 202, said he wants to install 900 4x6 foot solar panels on the roof of
his building. He said the panels would provide 80 to 85 percent of the
building’s energy needs.
Supervisors’ Vice Chairman Bill Kirkpatrick
reminded Stoltzfus that the township ordinance on solar energy requires no
reflection from the panels into traffic.
The
other application involves the installation of a prefabricated barn to be
placed within the setback at 1325 Creek Road. The supervisors said they will
remain neutral on the issue, but will send a letter to the ZHB recommending a
stipulation that the barn be taken down if the property is sold.
