Emilia Teasdale reports in The Columbia Paper that on Aug. 1 the Kinderhook Town Board unanimously enacted a three-month moratorium on non-roof-mounted solar panels. “The Town Board finds that a moratorium should be enacted to enable the town to investigate the appropriate regulation of solar farms and non-roof-mounted solar,” the measure read.
