Panel Permits

Kyle's zoning code treats a residential or commercial solar panel that isn't attached to the main building as an accessory structure, so it has to follow the same siting rules as a shed or detached garage. City Code § 53-33(r) sets those standards, including a setback tied to the panel structure's height and a cap on how tall it can be.
