Vill. Renewable Energy Condition for Certain Permits <br />A. Condition for Planned Unit Development (PUD) Approval <br />- Model Community may require on -site renewable energy <br />systems, zero -net -energy (ZNE) or zero -net -carbon (ZNC) <br />building designs, solar -synchronized electric vehicle charging <br />or other clean energy systems as a condition for approval of a <br />PUD permit to mitigate for: <br />1. Impacts on the performance of the electric distribution <br />system, <br />2. Increased local emissions of greenhouse gases associated <br />with the proposal, <br />3. Need for electric vehicle charging infrastructure to offset <br />transportation -related emissions for trips generated by the <br />new development, <br />4. Other impacts of the proposed development that are <br />inconsistent with the Model Community Comprehensive <br />Plan. <br />Condition for Conditional Use Permit - Model Community may <br />require on -site renewable energy systems or zero net energy <br />construction as a condition for a rezoning or a conditional use <br />permit. <br />IX. Solar Roof Incentives - Model Community encourages <br />incorporating on -site renewable energy system or zero net energy <br />construction for new construction and redevelopment. Model <br />Community may require on -site renewable energy or zero -net - <br />energy construction when issuing a conditional use permit where <br />the project has access to local energy resources, in order to ensure <br />consistency with Model Community's Climate Action Plan. <br />A. Density Bonus - Any application for subdivision of land in <br />the _ Districts that will allow the development of at least <br />four new lots of record shall be allowed to increase the <br />maximum number of lots by 10% or one lot, whichever is <br />greater, provided all building and wastewater setbacks can <br />be met with the increased density, if the applicant enters <br />into a development agreement guaranteeing at least three <br />(3) kilowatts of PV for each new residence that has a solar <br />resource. <br />Financial Assistance — Model Community provides financial assistance to certain types of development <br />and redevelopment. All projects that receive financial assistance of $ or greater, and that have <br />a solar resource shall incorporate on -site renewable energy systems. <br />Minnesota Model Solar Ordinance 16 <br />
