SAN BERNARDINO – The San Bernardino County Planning Commission will hold a public hearing 9 a.m. Thursday, Nov. 7, to review a conditional use permit request by Sunlight Partners for a 7.5 MW photovoltaic solar facility on 80.6 acres in the High Desert community of Helendale. The proposed project location is the southwest corner of Wild Road and Smithson Road. According to the staff report, Sunlight Partners has revised its site plan, incorporating “an increased setback from the (adjacent) park property to reduce impacts related to aesthetics and blow sand,” after concerns were raised from the Helendale Community Services District General Manager at the Oct. 17 meeting.
