Dixmont considers temporary ban on solar arrays

BANGOR DAILY NEWS • September 22, 2021

Dixmont residents will vote at a special town meeting on Oct. 12 whether to impose a moratorium on permitting for solar panel arrays for at least six months while the planning board drafts a policy regulating their construction. The impetus came from Dixmont officials’ realization that there was no requirement that developers set aside money for when it came time to decommission such arrays.
