Tillamook County solar access and internal energy management program grant: Final performance report

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6674097
The grant involved two proposed activities: the development and adoption of solar access protection ordinances, and assistance to local jurisdictions in developing programs and methods to decrease their electrical energy use. The solar access protection ordinances were to include three elements: zoning ordinance standards governing the siting of buildings on existing lots, vegetation control standards to be included in the zoning ordinance, and subdivision design standards. The project application stated that ''the short term milestone of the solar access project will be the final adoption of solar access ordinance provisions by local governments in Tillamook County. Evaluation of the project's success will be measured by the number of cities which adopt such provisions into their ordinances.'' By this standard the project was not successful. Tillamook County, nor any Tillamook County cities adopted solar access protection ordinances.
