Roseville Public Works, Environment and <br />Transportation Commission <br />Agenda Item <br />Date: August 26, 2014 Item No: 5 <br />Item Description: Community Solar Discussion <br />Background: <br />Staff has arranged for Brian Ross from CR Planning to give a presentation to the Commission. <br />Brian is an expert in this area and expects to be under contract within the next month to provide <br />technical assistance to cities on solar projects. We would like the Commission to be prepared to <br />ask questions that will help the group develop a vision for the City of Roseville's role in solar <br />energy and community solar. <br />Staff has also used the GIS tool developed by the University of Minnesota to develop the <br />attached map of solar potential in the city. We have identified the public parcels to help <br />understand where the opportunities are on those properties. <br />The link to the GIS mapping tool is: <br />htty://mans.umn.edu/solar/ <br />Recommended Action: <br />Receive the presentation and discuss the city's role. <br />Attachments: <br />A. Map of solar potential <br />
