In proposed subdivisions where a building configuration has been developed solar access easements shall be designed to protect solar access to the proposed south roof and south wall areas and any proposed site for a solar energy system. For those subdivisions that have not been developed, solar access to the southernmost boundary of the buildable portion of a lot shall be protected. In establishing the dimensions of a solar access easement, specific considerations must be made.
In cases where a building configuration is not able to reasonably protect solar access to proposed south-facing element, the advisory agency may require the preparation and dedication of solar access easements as a condition of approval for any subdivision application containing one or more proposed lots under one acre.
Solar access easements shall not be required in cases where the lot that would be benefited is equal to or greater than one acre or where solar access is not available.
