ADDENDUM  A roof- or building-mounted wind facility must not, as mounted, extend above the roofline more than [10 - 30] feet, as measured vertically from the roofline to the highest point of the facility, unless it is determined that additional height is necessary to provide clearance for safe operation, or to limit turbulence from surrounding structures.  Roof-mounted solar installations must not exceed district height limits, unless height incentives (e.g., additional floors) are provided under local regulations to promote the use of roof-mounted systems in high density [downtown, commercial] zoning districts.  Roof-mounted systems are exempt from any mechanical equipment screening requirements under local bylaws [except within the ____design review/ historic district]. Note: Wind facility installations typically exceed maximum district height limits under zoning, as required for operation. Turbine effectiveness increases with height – especially with distance above trees, buildings and other obstructions that generate turbulence. While most model bylaws limit the height of "smaller" systems – in part to limit their visibility and avoid FAA lighting requirements (200+ feet) – many also allow for clearance above existing obstructions. At minimum, bylaws should include height exceptions for off-grid wind systems regulated by the municipality. If the bylaws don't include specific height standards, small roof- mounted wind facilities (with rotors less than 20 feet in diameter) and solar facilities (less than 10 feet high) cannot be regulated (under 24 V.S.A. § 4412). Also note that the Public Service Board has determined – as a rebuttable presumption – that wind facilities 150 feet or less in height will not have an undue adverse visual impact. Access. New generation and transmission facilities shall be sited to minimize the need for and extent of new access roads and utility corridors.  Existing highways and access roads shall be used to access facility sites wherever physically feasible. Highway access approval from the municipality is required to access a town highway.  For large-scale projects that may impact town highways and traffic in the vicinity of the project during construction or operation, existing base-line traffic and road conditions shall be documented by the facility developer, to the satisfaction of the municipality. A traffic impact study also may be required, as specified under town bylaws. The facility developer shall be responsible for any highway improvements required to accommodate the project, and for repairing any damage to town highways resulting from the project.  Facility access roads and utility corridors must be shared wherever physically feasible, and located to minimize site disturbance, resource fragmentation, the extension or creation of edge habitat into previously undisturbed areas, and related adverse visual and environmental impacts. 24
