Background.  The following facts are undisputed.[4]  The entire town is zoned residential-agricultural.  The town has established a solar electric overlay district (SEOD) that allows for "large-scale ground-mounted solar electric installation[s] (greater than 10 kW [kilowatts])" as of right.  However, any such installations located outside the SEOD require a special permit in accordance with §§ 11.2 and 18 of the bylaw.[5]  The proposed site of the project is on property located outside of the SEOD, thereby requiring a special permit and site plan review.
