He said amending condition #7 in the proposed ordinance to 100 yards was not feasible. Mr. West explained that the Virginia Department of Environmental Quality is the regulatory agency regarding all stormwater issues, and the City regulates all erosion matters, therefore, maintenance will not be an issue. Regarding property value impact, he offered that the commissioned real estate appraisal used similar projects in Massachusetts and North Carolina due to the limited number of solar energy facilities in Virginia and determined that solar energy facilities neither increase or decrease adjacent property values. Mr. West talked about the applicant’s willingness to limit the hours of normal construction to six days a week, between 7:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m. Hearing no additional speakers, the public hearing was closed. Council Member Goldberg asked about the timeline for construction of the proposed solar energy facility. Mr. West estimated that construction would take between four to six months. Council Member Goldberg queried about the impact of limiting construction to five days a week. Mr. West replied that he would have to research that matter, but he estimated that construction would still probably still take no longer than six months. Referring to the presentation, Council Member Goldberg inquired about the feasibility of amending condition #7 regarding the setback to 100 yards. Mr. West reported that he would be hesitant to address the feasibility of that amendment and would need to confer with the project’s engineers before agreeing to such a condition. Referring to the presentation, Vice Mayor Bennett opined about the visibility of the proposed solar energy facility as it relates to the 15-foot vegetated buffer. Mr. West said that the City’s Unified Development Ordinance requires a minimum 15-foot vegetated buffer for a solar energy facility, and the specific details regarding the spacing would be addressed during the site plan review. Planning and Community Development Director Hainley added that the buffer would be composed of evergreens, probably in a staggered double row, which would prevent any issues regarding visibility. Referring to the presentation, Vice Mayor Bennett sought clarification of potential truck traffic along East Washington Street, as it relates to the proposed solar energy facility. Planning and Community Development Director Hainley said that trucks are prohibited from entering the north side and would be required to enter from the south. Vice Mayor Bennett opined about limiting the start of construction of the proposed solar energy facility to 8:00 a.m., instead of 7:00 a.m. Mayor Johnson called for information about the City’s ordinance regarding the hours for construction. Planning and Community Development Director Hainley indicated that the City’s ordinance permits construction to begin at 7:00 a.m. Council Member Ward asked if the applicant’s communicated with the adjacent property owners. Mr. West replied in the affirmative. 5 City Council Regular Meeting August 15, 2018 Council Member Ward opined about the concerns raised during the public hearing. Mr. West reiterated that the applicant has addressed their willingness to mitigate traffic during construction and protect their view of adjacent property owners. He added that the applicant has demonstrated that the proposed solar energy facility will have no impact on the property values of the adjacent property owners nor will the facility used any hazardous materials. Council Member Duman queried about the hours during the construction of the proposed solar energy facility. Mr. West reported that the hours during the construction of the solar energy facility would be 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. Council Member Duman inquired about the hours of operation of the solar energy facility. Mr. West explained that the proposed solar energy facility would be unmanned. Council Member Duman solicited information about the legality of the applicant voluntarily limiting their hours during the construction of the proposed solar facility. City Attorney Holland advised that the City cannot have a voluntary condition that would conflict with the existing City ordinance regarding hours of construction. Council Member Duman called for clarification about the possible amendments to the proposed ordinance. City Attorney Holland explained that City Council could not amend the proposed ordinance to include limitations regarding the hours of construction of the proposed solar energy facility. She concluded that City Council does have the authority to amend condition #7 regarding the setback. Council Member Duman, on a motion seconded by Council Member Fawcett, moved to approve the proposed ordinance with conditions #1, 3, 4, 5 and #6 as presented in the background information as printed in the official agenda and amend condition #7 as follows - the proposed entrance on White Marsh Road shall feature a Virginia Department of Transportation standard commercial design with a hard-surfaced approach (concrete or asphalt) extending to 75 feet, in lieu of the originally proposed 50 feet, into the site from the public right-of-way. Council Member Johnson asked when Stratford Solar Center, LLC was founded. Mr. West stated that Coronal Energy was founded in 2017, but its subsidiaries have more than a decade of experience in solar energy. Council Member Johnson called for information on the timeline for construction, should City Council approve the proposed ordinance. Mr. West indicated that construction on this project could start late next year. Council Member Johnson sought clarification about the possibility of selling the proposed solar energy facility. Mr. West stated that it is his company’s default position to owner and operate the proposed facility but there are utility companies that wish to own the facility’s outright and that is the case in Virginia. Council Member Johnson opined about any type of sales agreement with a utility company prior to the construction of the proposed solar energy facility. Mr. West said that there are a number of ways to structure these matters. 6 City Council Regular Meeting August 15, 2018 Referring to the presentation, Council Member Johnson opined about the visibility of the proposed solar energy facility as it relates to the 15-foot vegetated buffer, specifically the use of a staged triple row of trees.
