Oppose SB1190 To Keep Land Use Decisions Local

Jan 19, 2025 | Industrial Solar, Regulatory Permit Process

Great work from our group OPPOSING HB2126! Great response from citizens across Virginia too! (See comments here: https://hodspeak.house.virginia.gov/committees/H14/bills/HB2126/comments )
The same legislation is being pushed in the Virginia Senate as bill SB1190. https://lis.virginia.gov/bill-details/20251/SB1190
That bill is with the Senate Commerce & Labor Committee.
Opposition needs to be sent to each committee member. (There is NOT a public comment process like the House).
 
You can send the same comment you sent for HB2126 if you wish. Maybe add a “Dear Senator, …” or similar. Finish with salutation, your name, county.
Just below and attached are the email addresses for the committee members.  Please email them opposing SB1190.  Let them know that we believe that land use decisions should be made at the local county level and not at the state level, regardless of one’s position on utility scale solar.
Note: Senator Obenshain has been strongly opposed and a voice of reason leading up to this!
Best regards,
Scott
