SUMMARY RECOMMENDATION: The Development Review Committee members reviewed the variances during their August 9, 2023 meeting and recommend approval. BACKGROUND: Galesburg 650 Solar, LLC is installing solar panels on approximately 17.48 acres in the Galesburg Business Park. Ordinance Section 152.152 (G) (2) states “Surfacing. All open off- street parking areas and driveways shall be improved with a compacted macadam base, not less than six inches thick, surfaced with asphalt, concrete, brick or some comparable all-weather dustless material. Construction of the surfacing shall be completed within one year of the issuance of a building permit.” Due to the location of the project site being about the middle of the Business Park and that after construction the access road will only be used for routine maintenance visits, the applicant is requesting a variance to allow gravel to be used for the access drive.
