Small-scale solar projects?

Ben Roberts — Tue, 21 May 2024 13:12:14 +0000

Do any counties have experience with small-acreage solar projects (less than 10 acres) that are being set up in uncultivated areas of ag fields or where irrigation pivots can’t reach? There might even be multiple small projects like this around a single field or area. Interested in how this works with CUVA and possible solar ordinances in other counties.

From Myrna Taylor, Chief Appraiser:

Appling County is seeking input from other counties that are dealing with these over night popup Bitcoin mining facilities in their county. Any information you can lend will be greatly appreciated. The individuals that are onsite, none speak English. I have no information as to where we are to send Personal Property Returns to be completed. I have spoken on phone with a few counties and from what I am gathering the personal property is around $65 Million addition to Digest. Thanks in advance for any and all information.

Solar Farms

I have a few questions about solar farms. How do other counties group the personal property assets for solar farms? I have been putting them into group 3. How do you value the land? I have now valued the land as commercial. Do you split out the solar farm if you have a recorded plat but the owner has not requested it be split?
