Published scheduling rules

  • Using SolarAPP+ can materially speed up the code-compliance review step for a qualifying residential rooftop system, but you still apply for the permit, pay Town fees, and request inspections through Bennett's own SmartGov portal — SolarAPP+ replaces the plan-review step, not the whole permit process. (Rooftop Solar Photovoltaic (PV) Permit)
