The Presque Isle City Council has approved changes to the city’s land use ordinance designed to hide large solar arrays from public view, reaching a compromise with its planning board after several months of back and forth. New commercial solar facilities in the city will now have to be set back 100 feet from a paved road, 400 feet from any residence, and buffered by four rows of trees, the council decided on Wednesday.
