Miami County’s six-month moratorium on solar facility construction will not delay Osawatomie’s partnership with Evergy to build up to five megawatts of solar power — nearly double the originally proposed footprint — to serve the community, a city official said. Deputy City Manager Bret Glendening confirmed in an email Monday, Aug. 1, the county moratorium only applies to unincorporated areas of the county, not properties that have been annexed into a city. The Osawatomie-Evergy solar array project would be built on city-owned acreage directly north of the Osawatomie State Hospital on the northwest corner of the intersection of Old KC Road and 335th Street.
