At its Feb. 23 workshop, City of Griffin commissioners discussed the cityâs solar energy ordinance, since the city has been contacted by several companies interested in solar farms and solar panels for residences and businesses, but the cityâs Unified Development Code and Code of Ordinances are both silent on the subject.
âThere currently are not any codes to address these requests,â the workshopâs agenda states.
Planning and Development Director Chad Jacobs said his department looked at ordinances throughout the state and settled on Putnam Countyâs code as a good starting point.
Jacobs said the cityâs planning and development staff has added items important to Griffin, especially to the new airport.
