Franklin Historic District Design Guidelines

EFFECTIVE MAY 30, 2022 175 chapter 9 Solar Installation On-Site • Install freestanding or detached on-site solar panels in locations that offer minimal visibility from the street. Screen with fencing or landscaping of suitable scale for the district and setting. • Place and design freestanding or detached on-site solar panels so they do not detract from the historic character of the site or remove historic landscape materials. • Minimize the visibility of solar panels from neighboring properties, where possible. Other Modern Features • As technology advances, there may be modern features that are proposed in the historic districts. Generally, modern features should be placed so that they are screened from public view, do not involve the removal of historic features, and do not detract from or overwhelm the context of the historic districts.
