Planning Board shall have the discretion to permit the solar panel arrays to exceed the height limitation
of twelve (12) feet to the extent necessary, as determined by the Planning Board, to achieve the intended
(10)
purpose of the solar collectors. Such determination shall be made in consideration of the design of the
solar collectors and the subject property's natural and proposed characteristics, including, but not limited
to, topography, existing and proposed vegetative buffers, and proximity to residential and/or commercial
uses.
(7) Solar farm and solar power plant panels and equipment shall be surfaced, designed, and sited so

shall be removed from the site to a depth of at least three feet below grade.
(c) The site shall be restored to as natural a condition as possible within six months of the
removal of all equipment, structures and foundations. Such restoration shall include,
where appropriate, restoration of the surface grade and soil after removal of all equipment
and revegetation of restored soil areas with native seed mixes.
(d) The Planning Board shall, as a condition of approval, require the posting of a removal bond of
the solar farm's and solar power plant's equipment. In lieu of a removal bond, the Town Board, in its
discretion, may permit the owner and/or operator to enter into a decommissioning agreement with the
Town which provides, in relevant part, that if the decommissioning of the site is not completed within
six months of the time period specified in Subsection 10(a) above, and/or the restoration is not
completed within the time period specified in Subsection 10(c) above, the Town may, at its own
(11)
expense, enter the property and remove or provide for the removal of the structures and equipment
and/or the restoration of the site, as the case may be, in accordance with the decommissioning plan.
Such agreement shall provide, in relevant part, that the Town may recover all expenses incurred for such
activities from the defaulting property owner and/or operator. The cost incurred by the Town shall be
assessed against the property and shall become a lien and tax upon said property and shall be added to
and assessed as part of the taxes to be levied and assessed thereon and enforced and collected with
interest in the same manner as other taxes. This provision shall not preclude the Town from collecting
such costs and expenses by any other manner by action in law or in equity. In the event of any such
legal proceedings, the owner and/or operator, as the case may, be shall be liable for all legal expenses,
costs and disbursements in connection with said litigation, as awarded by a court of competent
jurisdiction.
