The remaining three townships in Columbiana County who had not sought a ban of large solar facilities and large wind farms in their unincorporated areas submitted resolutions recently requesting the ban.
Those townships include St. Clair, Liverpool and Yellow Creek. No date has been set for a public hearing on the proposed bans yet.
Commissioners are expected to accept the resolutions at their meeting Aug. 23 and then set the date for the public hearing. That’s also the day they may vote on the proposed ban for Elkrun, Hanover, Knox and Madison townships after hosting a public hearing on the matter last week.
During Wednesday’s meeting, Commissioner Tim Weigle reported that he met with Yellow Creek Township trustees Tuesday night and talked with them regarding the issue.
