Moratorium update
The time is now for citizens of this county to get involved in our local government and the issues that are being decided by our elected officials. The county commissioners will be holding public hearings February 28th regarding a solar moratorium covering a large area of land west of Goldendale. The county's ordinances regarding large scale solar projects are severely lacking. We are not asking for our commissioners to ban large scale solar but to have ordinances in place to ensure that projects are sensitively cited to protect wildlife, natural resources and the people that live in this beautiful valley. Join us in testifying at this hearing and submitting written comments to our commissioners. If you don’t feel comfortable in testifying, please attend to show your support. Below is the information on the hearings.
Public hearings will be held on Tuesday February 28, 2023 at 1:30 PM and 6:00PM in the Klickitat County Services Building, 115 West Court Street, Room 200, Goldendale, Washington. Any person desiring to express their views on the matter is invited to join the hearing to provide testimony.
