The following shall be the accessory uses allowed in the R-3
District:
A.
Minor
solar or photovoltaic energy facilities or structures. Minor solar
facilities shall be permitted to be ground-mounted and mounted to
principal and accessory structures and buildings; provided, however,
that in the case of a roof-mounted system, the photovoltaic solar
panels and all necessary equipment shall not extend more than 12 inches
beyond the edge of the roofline or 12 inches above the highest point
of the roof surface or structure. Flat roofs shall be exempt from
the height requirement. However, panels on a flat roof shall not extend
more than five feet above the roof line. Minor solar facilities shall
have a setback requirement consistent with building regulations. In
the case of a surface level or ground-mounted system, the system shall
be situated more than 50 feet from the nearest property boundary line.
Minor solar ground-mounted facilities serving residential uses shall
consist of no more than 10 panels. Minor solar ground-mounted facilities
located less than 50 feet from the nearest property line shall require
minor site plan approval prior to obtaining a zoning permit and shall
have setback requirements consistent with building regulations. Notwithstanding,
these systems shall not exceed the maximum building height in the
zoning district. Cadmium telluride solar panels shall not be permitted
due to the highly carcinogenic nature of cadmium and the possible
detrimental effects on children, wildlife, water supplies and the
environment.
