Placing restrictions on the development of solar energy in Halifax County was a topic of discussion at Monday evening’s board of supervisors meeting.

Supervisors voted in favor of a recommendation from the solar density committee to restrict new solar projects to no closer than 2,000 feet of any town boundary. Supervisors will hold a public hearing in a joint meeting with the Halifax County Planning Commission to gain input on the proposed change to the county’s solar ordinance before taking a final vote on the amendment.
