No county employees will be laid off during restructuring
By Amy Newsom
Correspondent
The Sibley County Board,
at its regular meeting on
Tuesday morning, July 12,
passed resolution #2016-20
stating that “in no circumstances shall any employee
layoffs occur as a result of the
restructuring or re-organization process and it will examine opportunities to keep positions vacant when affected
by the restructuring process.”
County Administrator
Roxy Traxler stated that there
have been a lot of rumors flying around lately about people losing their jobs as part of
the restructuring process. The
resolution was passed to
make it clear that the County
Board will not lay off anyone
and is committed to the goals
approved in March 2016
which include better service,
one-stop shopping, cross
training, and efficiency of
costs and services by reducing the number of departments and department heads.
County Commissioner Jim
Swanson stated that “farmers
have to run to several different places to get their stuff
done.” The county wants to
make it a one-stop shop.
Swanson listed St. Peter as an
example of a one-stop shop.
Residents go to one window
and all of the people that do
similar work are at that window. People can get everything done in one locality.
Swanson felt that the rumors
“are undermining the whole
process.”
County Commissioner Bill
Pinske also stated that he has
always been a firm advocate
that “nobody’s going to get
laid off.” Pinske stated that
he also felt it made good financial sense not to automatically refill a position when it
becomes vacant.
County Commissioner
Bobbie Harder stated that the
restructuring committee “has
been difficult. The treatment
of Roxy and lack of respect.”
Swanson wanted to make it
clear the restructuring process
was not Traxler’s idea, but
that it had been brought up
four years ago already.
The Board voted unanimously to pass the resolution.
The restructuring committee
will make a presentation to
everyone including board
members, department heads,
and employees on Thursday,
Aug. 11.
Commissioners hold
discussion on needed
courthouse repairs

100-Year Courthouse Social
Several hundred people attended the 100-Year Courthouse Social in Gaylord on Tuesday afternoon, July 12. There were
tours in the courthouse and memorabilia from the courthouse
was on display. Refreshments were also served. The Sibley
County Courthouse inauguration and cornerstone laying ceremony was held in Gaylord during July of 1916. Standing on the
second floor, this picture shows the architecture on the third
floor.

“What should we do with
this building?” That was the
question proposed to Sibley
County Board members by
County Administrator Roxy
Traxler about the courthouse
at the regular board meeting
on Tuesday morning, July 12.
Traxler stated that replacing the windows has been
mentioned as a priority, as
well as the heating, venting,
and air conditioning (HVAC).
Traxler stated that fixing the
HVAC system will be expensive, probably well over a
million dollars.
County Commissioner
Bobbie Harder also mentioned that they really need to
fix the leaks in the courthouse. When it rains water
runs inside the courthouse.
Traxler stated that two contractors have been out to look
at the roof and said the leaks
are not coming from the roof,
but rather from an inside
drain pipe and tuck-pointing
problems. Traxler mentioned
that the Minnesota Historical
Society may have grant
money available next month
to fix the tuck-pointing.
Since the courthouse in on
the National Register, Traxler
has been working with the
Minnesota Historical Society
and most work will have to
be approved by the Historical
Society.
Traxler also stated that the
coal chute is falling down in
the basement and really needs
to be addressed. One problem leads to another and “it is
difficult to fix one problem
without fixing others.”
It was the consensus of the
County Board to have Traxler
pull together some estimates
and meet with the administration committee to come up
with a plan.
Traxler hopes to put together a five-year plan to
tackle the needed repairs. If
the Minnesota Historical Society has grant funds available, Traxler will present a
proposal to the County Board
at the regular meeting on
Tuesday morning, July 26.
SE School Board conducts
4-minute special meeting
By Kurt Menk
Editor
The Sibley East School
Board, during a four-minute
special meeting in Arlington
on Tuesday night, July 12,
unanimously adopted a resolution to establish dates for
filing affidavits of candidacy
in regard to the general election on Tuesday, Nov. 8.
School Board members
Brian Brandt, Nathan Kranz,
Laura Reid, Missy Weber,
Dan Woehler and Sarah
Ziegler all voted in favor of
the resolution.
The current four-year terms
of Brandt, Kranz and Weber
will expire at the end of this
calendar year.
Arlington resident Marie Kreft, right, dressed up like an oldtime Sibley County resident and visited with people at the social. Sibley County Commissioner Bill Pinske is pictured on
the left.
Residents from throughout Sibley County lined up to sign the
guest book which was on the second floor of the courthouse.
The County Commissioners were very pleased with the
turnout.
Retired Sibley County Recorder Eldrene Ebert, left, and retired
Sibley County Human Resources Director Roseann Nagel,
right, served as guides during the tours.
Sibley County Commissioner Joy Cohrs, right, visited with
Clarence Hahn, left, on the front lawn of the courthouse. Refreshments were served underneath a tent in front of the
courthouse.
Prior to the vote, Kranz assumed the special meeting
was called because there was
a “screw up.” He then questioned why the resolution was
not part of the agenda at the
last regular monthly meeting.
Kranz later asked if the
Minnesota School Board Association could remind Sibley
East about such deadlines to
avoid any special meetings in
the future.
The five other School
Board members did not respond to his questions.
The School Board will
hold its next regular monthly
meeting in Arlington at 6:30
p.m. Monday, July 18.
County Commissioners receive
update from MnDOT at meeting
By Amy Newsom
Correspondent
Ronda Allis, a representative from the Minnesota Department of Transportation,
updated the Sibley County
Board on upcoming road
projects in Sibley County
from 2017 to 2026. The update came at the regular
meeting in Gaylord on Tuesday morning, July 12.
Highway 22/111 from Gaylord to Nicollet is scheduled
for work in 2020.
County Commissioner
Gary Kruggel questioned if
that road project could not be
moved up. He has been hearing a lot of complaints about
the condition of Highway 22
outside of Gaylord lately.
Kruggel also questioned the
placement of the large
planters on Highway 22 in
downtown Gaylord. He stated
that there is not even enough
room to open the passenger
door when cars are parked
next to a planter.
Bridge work in Winthrop is
scheduled for 2021 and roadwork on Highway 5 from
Green Isle to U.S. Highway
212 is scheduled for 2022.
Work on Highway 19 between Winthrop and Gaylord
is scheduled for 2026.
In other business, Sibley
County Assessor Laura Hacker updated the County Board
on the three remaining townships that have not signed the

Students on President’s List
A number of local and area students were recently selected to the President’s List at South Central College.
The recognition is given to students in good academic
standing who maintain a grade point average of 3.5 or
better while earning 12 credits or more during the semester period.
The students included Andrew Jahr and Darin Neisen,
both from Arlington; and Austin Brockhoff, Henderson.
Seal coating north of Gaylord
Motorists are advised to pay attention and expect
brief delays as Highway 22 from Gaylord to Highway
212 is scheduled for work this week, weather permitting.
Motorists can expect to encounter flaggers and a pilot
car beginning July 11. The project is expected to take
about one week.
The work primarily consists of seal coating to prevent
water from getting under the surface and damaging the
pavement.
Minnesota’s highway system is getting older and as it
ages, it needs more work to keep it in good shape.
These projects are preventative maintenance on newer
pavements to keep them in good condition longer.

Upgrade at ethanol plant
Work continues on the Heartland Corn Products site
in a continued effort to upgrade the ethanol plant, according to an article in the Winthrop News.
A large crane was brought in to do some heavy lifting.
The crane lifted the combined heat and power (“CHP”)

site, as well as provide steam for the production process.
The equipment should be operational before the end of
2016.

A driving rain storm early
Tuesday night had Wednesday
morning second-guessers baffled as to just how much rainfall
this area did receive. Just to put
the record straight, we called
upon our local weather bureau,
George Bach at the Big Stone
Canning Company. The canning
firm’s rain gauge recorded just
seven tenths of one inch, but he
added, just four miles west of
Arlington, a whopping 2 1/2
inches was recorded.
A quiet wedding ceremony
was performed at St. Paul’s
Lutheran Church at 2 o’clock on
Saturday, July 8th by the Rev.
H. J. Malotky which united Mr.
Raymond Heimkes, son of Mrs.
Emily Heimke with Mrs Mavis
Herrmann. Mr. and Mrs. Duane
Voight were the couple’s attendants.
Pvt. Richard Luepke is now
in Germany where he will be
stationed for the next two years.

Shakopee raises minimum wage to $19 for some
If a business receives a
subsidy from the City of
Shakopee, it must meet city
standards for the minimum
wage it pays its employees,
according to an article in the
Shakopee Valley News.
The City Council, acting as
the Shakopee Economic Development Authority, recently
approved raising the minimum wage from 175 percent
of the federal minimum wage
to 200 percent of the minimum wage. In dollars and
cents, that means companies
receiving city subsidies will

townships include Cornish,
New Auburn, and Faxon.
Hacker stated that she felt
the contracts not being returned to the county was just
due to miscommunications,
but Commissioner Bobbie
Harder stated that Faxon was
looking at other options to
contract with for tax assess-

The County Board directed
Hacker to give the townships
until Aug. 1 to return their

they will not have a tax assessment contract with the

City Council to look
into allowing alcohol
in all local parks
Our View: City Council should conduct
more research and move ahead with caution
The Arlington City Council, during its regular meeting on
Tuesday night, July 5, voted 3-1 and approved a motion to
look into amending the current ordinance and allow alcohol in
all local parks with some type of application process.
The move is not a done deal and it is never a bad idea to hold
a healthy discussion on any issue. However, the City Council
should conduct thorough research and proceed with caution on
this issue.
Under the current ordinance, alcohol is not allowed in local
parks. Exceptions have been made in the past for special
events sponsored by community service organizations or a city
celebration. However, the current ordinance has never been
followed or enforced in local parks.
It was recently reported to the City Council that some cities
do not allow alcohol in their parks while other communities do
allow alcohol in their parks.
A good start is for the City Council to seek public input and
determine whether or not local residents even want alcohol allowed in their city parks.
Another good idea is for local city officials to contact the
communities that currently allow alcohol in their parks. These
cities may be able to provide some important information that
could be helpful to the City of Arlington.
One neighboring community did allow alcohol in their city
parks years ago and experienced nothing but problems from
broken glass to noise complaints to under-aged drinking. People flocked to that community because it allowed alcohol in
the city parks. Boundaries and liability are key issues too.
This should not be a race, but a marathon. The City Council
should take its time and proceed with caution on this issue.

Letters To The Editor
Rev. Richards make some erroneous assumptions
To The Editor,
With all due respect, I must respond to Rev. Scott Richards’s letter
to the editor from the June 30 edition of the Arlington Enterprise. I
don’t doubt the sincerity of his reaction to Congressman Gruenhagen,
but I believe he makes some erroneous assumptions.
First, Rev. Richards says that it
doesn’t make any difference what
Omar Mateen’s religion was. Actually, there is a difference between
radical Islam and Christianity. Orthodox Christians who believe in the
inspiration and inerrancy of Scripture see homosexual acts as sin.
However, no truly orthodox Christian would advocate killing gay people. Rather, just as our Lord Jesus
Christ does, we would want all sinners to come to repentance and forgiveness of sins, including ourselves.
Second, Rev. Richards seems to
imply that disagreeing with samesex marriage and with removing restrictions for using public bathrooms
contributes to violence against
LGBT people. One can make a distinction between those who disagree
with these issues and those who
would murder people. One can and
should make such a distinction, es-
pecially in a free society. Calling
people who disagree “homophobic”
or “bigot” unfairly shuts down reasonable debate.
If Rev. Richards thinks Rep. Gruenhagen’s beliefs are sinful--and
mine, too, I suppose--then shouldn’t
that be an opportunity for him to
speak the truth in love? Although he
may not welcome Rep. Gruenhagen’s prayers, or mine either, I
will continue to pray for them both,
and I would hope that Rev. Richards
would pray for me.

America - A nation on the brink?
To The Editor,
America, America, what has happened to thee? A once great nation
now down on its knee. Where justice is served to a select chosen few.
And God is no longer spoken, when
you sit in the pew. America, America, is thy end near? From the events
of this month this is what I do fear.
We have to ask ourselves, what
kind of country are we giving to our
children? What have we allowed
America to become? It has been
said that God gives us the government we deserve. As we reject God
in our everyday lives, we elect corruption into leadership. Our President, governor, Minneapolis mayor,
Minneapolis police chief, Twin
Cities media, and select pastors are
actively trying to create and deepen
a divide in this country along racial,
sexual, and economic lines. We
have a local pastor who basks in the
glory of living a lifestyle which God
declared sinful in the Old Testament
and reiterated in the New Testament.
We have removed or are trying to
remove the presence of God and
Jesus in all aspects of public life by
falsely claiming that the federal constitution claims “separation of
Church and State”, a statement
which is not in the federal constitution.
Therefore, when we allow these
actions to take place, is it any wonder that we have forgotten who our
neighbors are or that loving them
does not equate to condoning their
sinful actions? Is it any wonder that
we have a small group of people allowed to illegally detain others on a
federal highway as city, state, and
public safety leadership encourages
it to happen? Is it any wonder that
people have no faith in the judicial
system when Hillary Clinton, the
presumptive presidential nominee
for the Democrat Party skates by
free for doing the same things that
others have gone to jail for?
These are trying times and if we
don’t elect men and women who
have based their lives on God’s
word then I am afraid that this is indeed the end of a once great nation
called - America.

Ms. Weber is using a smokescreen
To The Editor,
In Missy Weber’s letter calling for
Nathan Kranz needing to be a team
player she is using her name calling
as a ruse to conceal a very real
problem. The continual failure by
The Board to the the students, parents and taxpayers. To make a mistake is human and can be forgiven.
It can be instructive and changes can
make things better. Continual mistakes are either ineptitude, ignorance, or standard operating procedure. The arrogance that we can do
whatever we want and the public
will not notice.
Ms. Weber has been on the Board
as it failed to publish the School
Board meeting minutes to the students, parents, and the public in a
timely manner for over a year. Only
complying when a threat of an open
meeting law violation was raised.
She was on the Board when the
Minnesota State Patrol report on bus
safety in Minnesota rated the district
as having one of the worst inspection records in Minnesota two years
ago. That was never on an agenda,
never brought to a public discussion,
no action was ever noted. That inac-

tion brought student safety, parental
concerns, and Board oversight into
question.
And now Principal Tim Schellhammer unilaterally chose a new
graduation program. He did not
present his change to the School
Board at a public meeting. There
was no discussion and no timely
public input. The first notice came
when students came home from
graduation practice two days before
the ceremony. And there still had
been no public notice to the Board
during a public meeting. The parents who called probably represent
at least ten more who didn’t call.
Making a change in the graduation
ceremony without notifying the
Board is the problem. What else is
going on without Board approval or
knowledge?
Rather than hold Mr. Schellhamer
accountable for his actions, she excuses yet another failure with accounts of emails, contacting neighboring districts, and colleagues
through the Minnesota Association
of Secondary Principals. She is
clearly covering for the administration and not representing the stu-
dents, parents or taxpayers. She has
become part of the problem not the
solution.
One has to question Ms. Weber’s
focus. The graduation ceremony
should be all about the students and
their achievements sharing the moment with their parents, family and
friends. By sending the students
across the stage to pick up empty
packets and asking them to pick up
their diplomas at the school at a later
date, Ms. Weber finds the problem
with Nathan Kranz in bringing this
to the attention of the Board and
public.
Ms. Weber, Nathan Kranz was
elected to change the direction of
the Board, to call out the wrongs
and attempt to correct them. I doubt
anyone who voted for him wanted
him to be a team player and continue the failures with which you have
been involved. Those same voters
will be looking for more candidates
like Nathan who serves the students,
parents, and taxpayers.

Parcel fees and USDA lease program
By Bobbie Harder
County Commissioner
Over the past weeks, I have
received several questions regarding the change in parcel
fees and the USDA lease proposal.
So much of what happens
in the county is dictated by
laws and rules written or
passed at the state and federal
level. Here is an example of
how a state law affects us. A
proposal was presented by
the county assessor at a board
meeting to increase the yearly
per parcel fee for cities and
townships. For our the district
the fee will be raised to $10
for Henderson and $8.50 for
townships. The fee is to help
cover the cost of viewing
properties/land to determine
estimated market value. Reasons for the proposed change
is due to 2) the cost would be
consistent for all parcels in
cities and townships, b) costs
due to an increase of licensing requirements, c) upgrading the software for efficiency and accuracy. The estimated cost to certify an employee
is approximately $7,382.
See Minnesota Statute
(273.0535) “The county or
local assessing district must
assume the cost of training its
assessors in courses approved by the board for the
purpose of obtaining the assessor’s license to the extent
of course fees, mileage,
meals, and lodging, and recognized travel expenses not
paid by the state.”
Generally I am not in favor
of raising taxes. However, it
is difficult to control our
costs when the state creates
laws such as the one mentioned. The Assessor’s Department is being transparent
in their efforts to educate residents to fully understand
what costs we are paying for
and how the money is used.
Early last year, I attended a
meeting where discussion
was held regarding the lack
of space for several agencies
which included NRCS (Natural Resources Conservation
Services), FSA (Farm Service
Agency), and SWCD (Soil
and Water Conservation District). Originally my thought
was not to consider a new facility. Since that meeting,
having done more research
had led me to reconsider to
either look at a new facility
or explore other options
which can save money for all
of us. In effect the county
rents additional space in commercial buildings. This year
we will incur for renting
space a total of $23,170.80.
This is lost money as we gain
no equity.
The county provides quarterly contributions for
SWCD. Some of the funds
are used to rent private commercial space at a cost of
$5,170 for 2016. From information obtained, this space
has been rented for over 20
years with the average
monthly cost of around $400.
We pay rent for the county attorney’s private office space.
For 2016, the cost will be
$18,000. The cost of this
space from 2008 to 2015 totaled $128,400. Since 1988,
we have been paying rent and
the total is substantially higher. For both of these examples, this is lost money and
no equity has been gained as
a result of using our money to
pay rent.
Should we consider a new
facility to house SWCD,
other county offices that need
space, and move the county
attorney’s office to the courthouse? Is it appropriate for
the county attorney’’s office
to be located in Gaylord
which is the county seat? We
would be able to build equity
and have the federal government (USDA) pay us for
leased space to help in covering the cost of a new modern
facility.
Sibley County has developed goals to establish where
we will be in five to 10 years.
With looking at reorganizing
departments for efficiency
and streamlining processes,
this option maybe very helpful in meeting the goals set
by the county. Pending lease
approval, future discussion
should continue which would
also include looking at other
options.

Gaylord City Council denies social media grievance
Grievance denied.
That was the decision by

grievance involving the city’s
social media policy, according to an article in the Gaylord Hub.
At the June 1 City Council
meeting, Gaylord resident
Diana Karau, who is also a
candidate for Sibley County
Commissioner, voiced concern that she was being censored on the city’s Facebook
page. She had been commenting on different posts using a
profile picture of her campaign sign for county commissioner.
The city office began receiving complaints that this
was being done as a way to
campaign on the city’s page,

Les was confirmed by Rev.
Hans Werner at Immanuel
Lutheran Church in New
Auburn on April 16, 1941. He
attended German Parochial

Administrator Kevin McCann. According to the city’s
social media policy, staff has
full discretion to remove content. Staff initially asked
Karau to change her picture,
but she declined, so staff was
forced to hide her comments,
McCann added.
In the city’s social media
policy that was adopted in
April 2014, it states that the
city reserves the right to
delete any information. The
city contends Karau’s posts
were linked to advertising for
sales or promotion of
goods/services.
At the June 15 meeting,
Karau told City Council
members that she doesn’t believe her Facebook profile
picture fits the definition of
goods and services. “I’m not
violating your social media
policy based on what the city
highlighted,” Karau said.
“I’m just confused.”
Mayor Don Boeder responded by saying that the
city has always played neutral and doesn’t endorse anybody. “A fine line was
crossed,” Boeder said.
The City Council was
unanimous in denying
Karau’s grievance.
Karau said she respected
the city’s decision, but didn’t
agree with it. “I’m not seeking endorsement and not
campaigning,” she said. “I’m
just participating in the
process.”
City Council member Jim
Landaas said campaigning
may not have been Karau’s
intent, but “perception is the
key” in this situation.

Sports
Green Isle to remain in Class C
By Tom Carothers
Sports Editor, The McLeod
County Chronicle
A motion to recommend to
the Minnesota Baseball Association (MBA) that the Green
Isle Irish be moved up to
Class B this season was voted
down 10-4 at a special meeting of the Crow River Valley
League (CRVL) on Monday,
July 11.
The meeting had been initially called for the purposes
of discussing the recruiting
practices within the CRVL,
with focus on whether Green
Isle should be moved up from
Class C to B due to a perceived extended recruiting
reach.
Glencoe, Watertown and
Mayer presented the topic of
discussion, with Brewers
manager Stephen Wiblemo
pointing out that the Irish roster consisted of a wealth of
players with home addresses
that are very close to the
frontier of the 30-mile radius
from which CRVL teams are
allowed to search for players.
As noted in the meeting’s
discussion points: “Green
Isle’s 23-man roster consists
of 16 current or former baseball players, many of whom
have been recruited from
communities far from Green
Isle, such as Minnetonka,
Victoria and Excelsior. Eight
of those college players have
addresses from 25 miles out
or further, and 10 are from 20
miles out or further. Just six
players on their roster come
from their home school district, Sibley East, and 11 are
within a 15-mile radius.”
“(Green Isle) is not breaking any rules,” Wiblemo admitted, though he questioned
whether the Irish were playing “in the spirit” of Class C.
“Their players are very good,
but not necessarily local.”
Hamburg manager Rich
Schug pointed out that the
MBA is currently “putting together a program to address”
roster makeup and questioned
the timing of discussing the
recruiting practices of league
teams in general.
Wiblemo said that while
some teams do have to reach
out for players, “the question
is to what extent do we allow
reaching out,” while noting
that he felt the league did not
have to wait for the MBA to
make a decision.
Josh Monahan of Watertown said that while he “was
on the fence all year” about
the matter, he encouraged the
league to “take a look at this
and decide.”
Following the initial presentation, the Green Isle contingent retorted, with Irish
player Zach Herd asking for a
definition of “recruiting practices” and putting out a blanket question regarding CRVL
teams’ five-year plans and
goals. He also wondered
aloud whether the Irish were
being singled out for their
success.
“I’m not mad, I’m frustrated that we are here discussing
something that doesn’t have a
lot of meat to it,” he said.
“You have the same access to
players – we can’t help where
we are on a map.”
Debate ensued between
Herd and Wiblemo, with the
former inquiring whether
catcher Josh Kraby leaving
Glencoe for Green Isle last
off-season was the impetus
for wanting the Irish moved
out of Class C.
Wiblemo countered, “I
brought up something that the
rest of the state has been
thinking and talking about.”
Green Isle’s Brian Hartmann ran down the team roster, noting, “We’re not picking up ringers. We have to go
get guys. The local high
school program has to support three teams.”
“These aren’t (Division I or
II) top players,” he said.
“Ours is not a Class B roster.”
The meeting was marked
by pronounced periods of silence when other CRVL
teams were given the opportunity to weigh in on the
issue.
“I felt we needed a meeting,” Monahan said. “There’s
been a lot of talk around the
league. I’m not sure why people are being silent here –
maybe people feel intimidated, or had a change of heart.”
A motion was made by
Wiblemo and seconded by
Monahan whether to ask the
MBA to consider moving
Green Isle to Class B as early
as the state board’s meeting
this Saturday. Schug moved
that a roll-call vote be taken
rather than a closed ballot, a
proposal that inspired further
debate.
Following an extended discussion, a roll-call tally was
approved and teams were
asked their votes on the matter.
Brownton joined Glencoe,
Mayer and Watertown in voting to recommend moving
Green Isle to Class B.
Green Isle, Plato, New
Germany, St. Boni, Winsted,
Carver, Cologne, Waconia,
Young America and Hamburg
voting for the status quo.
Following the vote, the
meeting was promptly called
to an end.

subject to the structure setbacks
set forth in each respective Zoning
District in respect to property lines,
road right-of-way lines, County tile
lines, and County and Joint Ditches.
a. The Zoning Administrator
may waive the joint and county tile
line setback requirements upon a
written recommendation approving
such waiver from the Sibley County Drainage Inspector. Such waiver will take into consideration the
depth of the tile, the structural integrity of the tile, the soil characteristics, the location of the tile to
surrounding structures, and any
other information deemed to be of
importance. The written waiver, if
approved, shall state that by reducing the minimum setback requirement the project will not negatively affect the structure or utility
of the tile and will not create problems for the future maintenance or
relocation of the tile.
300.14.21.8.2.
Any ground mounted solar energy system larger than .25 acres
in area must be located at least
150 feet away from any dwelling,

roof-mounted systems that have a
greater pitch than the roof surface
shall be set back from all roof
edges by at least 2 feet. Exterior
piping for solar thermal systems
shall be allowed to extend beyond
the perimeter of the building on a
side yard exposure.
2. Ground-mounted Solar Energy Systems.
i. Ground-mounted solar energy systems may not extend into
the side-yard, rear, or road rightof-way setback when oriented at
minimum design tilt.
ii. Ground-mounted solar energy systems that result in the creation of one or more acres of impervious surface, must comply
with the MPCA Construction
Stormwater Permit Requirements.

customer-owned generator. Offgrid systems are exempt from this
requirement.
h. Vegetative screening or
buffering of the solar energy system may be required as part of the
conditions of approval. Screening
or buffering shall be based on the
proximity of the system to residential buildings and to abutting public
rights-of-way.
300.14.21.8.4.
Standards for Large Solar Energy Systems.
a. Stormwater Management
and Erosion and Sediment Control
shall meet the requirements of the
