 AB 236 of the 2005 Legislature requires a local government to amend its building codes and, if necessary, it’s zoning ordinances and regulations to permit a person to use solar energy systems and wind energy systems to reduce the energy costs. The amendments may address:
· The inclusion of characteristics of land and structures that are most appropriate for the construction and use of systems using solar and wind energy
· The recognition of any impediments to the development of systems using solar and wind energy
· The preparation of design standards for the construction, conversion or rehabilitation of new and existing systems using solar and wind energy
