The Planning Commission held a public hearing where two comments were received, one in support and one against. The neighbor to the west of the site expressed concern over the lack of screening along the shared property line. The other comment was from a representative from Wolf River Electric, who provided clarification on the application. The Planning Commission then closed the public hearing. The Planning Commission discussed screening requirements, the location of the solar panels, and differences between Local SES and Distribution SES.
