(k) Any special exception approval granted under this article shall have a term of
twenty years, commencing from the grant of the special exception, which may be
extended for additional five-year terms upon application to the Planning Board.
(l) Decommissioning/Removal:
(i) Any commercial solar energy production system that is not operated for a
continuous period of 24 months shall be deemed abandoned. At that time,
the owner of the commercial solar energy production system or the owner
of the property where the commercial solar energy production system is
located shall remove all components thereof within 90 days of such
deemed abandonment or will be in violation of this section. In the case of
a commercial solar energy production system on preexisting structures,
this provision shall apply to the commercial solar energy production
system only. If the commercial solar energy production system is not
removed within said 90 days, the Building Inspectors may give the owner
notice that unless the removal is accomplished within 30 days, the Town
will cause the removal at the owner’s expense. All costs and expenses
incurred by the Town in connection with any proceeding or any work done
for the removal of a commercial solar energy production system shall be
assessed against the land on which such commercial solar energy
production system is located, and a statement of such expenses shall be
presented to the owner of the property, or if the owner cannot be
ascertained or located, then such statement shall be posted in a
conspicuous place on the premises. Such assessment shall be and
constitute a lien upon such land. If the owner of the system and the owner
of the property upon which the system is located shall fail to pay such
expenses within 10 days after the statement is presented or posted, a legal
action may be brought to collect such assessment or to foreclose such lien.
As an alternative to the maintenance of any such action, the Building
Inspector may file a certificate of the actual expenses incurred as
aforesaid, together with a statement identifying the property in connection
with which the expenses were incurred and the owner of the system and
the owner of the property upon which the system is located, with the
Assessors, who shall, in the preparation of the next assessment roll, assess
such amount upon such property. Such amount shall be included in the
levy against such property, shall constitute a lien and shall be collected
and enforced in the same manner, by the same proceedings, at the same
time and under the same penalties as are provided by law for the collection
and enforcement of real property taxes in the Town of Southold.
(ii) This section is enacted pursuant to Section 10 of the Municipal Home
Rule Law to promote the public health, safety and general welfare of
Town citizens through removal provisions to ensure the proper
decommissioning of commercial solar energy production systems within
the entire Town. The removal reduction provision of this chapter shall
supersede any inconsistent portions of the Town Law Section 64(5-a) and
