Klickitat County Commissioners decided on Tuesday to lift a moratorium on commercial or industrial solar projects that would be subject to a conditional use process, passing a motion by Commissioner Jacob Anderson that calls for staff to do a cumulative impact analysis of potential solar farms in both Goldendale’s Knight Road area and the County while the Commission works on recommendations for the Board of Adjustment to consider when dealing with any applications it might receive. Anderson maintained his belief in the conditional use process if and when they receive an application for a solar project near Knight Road. Commissioner Dan Christopher had been calling for the Commission to provide more specific criteria for the public to see, but did concur with the plan to create recommendations and do the impact analysis. The Commission spent three weeks deliberating the subject after a public hearing on the moratorium.
