I thought that I would pass on a friendly reminder about local codes and ordnances.
Please before starting any project with either solar energy or wind power check with the building department of your city, township, or county (borough, parish depending on what part of the country you live in) for any ordnances and building codes. Once you decide on a project go and get all of the necessary permits.
Also if you happen to be part of a homeowners association also be sure to check with them about any covenants that you are bound by.
You might be surprised at how accommodating the ordnances and covenants might be. But on the opposite end they could be very restrictive......... Downright prohibitive, especially if you happen to live in a historic district.
