Land Use & Property Rights
What’s happening? The Butte-Silver Bow, Mont., Zoning Board is considering a zoning request for a 5 acre proposed battery storage facility.
Why is this important? Residents say it will scar the views and character, pose safety risks and lead to further industrialization in open spaces. The developer says it will “help fill gaps in energy capacity and provide electric power if needed during peak loads and critical times”
How will this be important? As the number of battery facilities expands so will the concerns of nearby residents. Take notes.
