For lots in the AG district, small scale wind generation systems shall be limited free-standing and/or roof mounted vertical axis helix wind turbines with a height that shall not exceedevents`five (MMU feet. In the event that structures or vegetation on an adjoining property result in practical difficulties in deploying such a system, the Board of Adjustment can consider a variance to allow additional height.and consider the off-site impediment to wind flow as a valid hardship for the granting of a variance to a height that will clear the wind generation system from the impediment. c) Sound Level.
