Contributing sentiments towards policy:
50% : "Unfortunately, with the 60 CSR cap, it seems that there is not a way forward for our project in Tama County, should this cap get reflected in the final Solar Ordinance," Elias Toshiro, a solar developer with Tyr Energy Development Renewables (TED Renewables), told the newspaper in an email.46% : But as of press time and barring state intervention akin to the unsuccessful legislation proposed recently by Sen. Mike Klimesh (R-Spillville) -- which, if passed, would have enacted a statewide ordinance on the siting and operation of renewable electric power generating facilities, effectively circumventing local control -- commercial solar will not be clearing Tama County horizons for the foreseeable future.
44% : There is adequate land available in Tama County with a CSR of less than 60 for non-agricultural uses.
44% : After collection at the state level, this component of the tax is returned to the county.
