Land Use and Cemeteries

What is happening? Saunders County (Nebraska) Planning Commission rejected a solar installation site in part for its proximity to a cemetery

Why is this important? It’s not an often brought up reason for solar placement, but how many small rural cemeteries are within a certain number of feet of a solar array?

How will this be important? can’t imagine any solar siting ordinances, rules or laws including cemeteries… or at least not yet.
