SUMMARY:Rooftop Solar and Homeowner Rights: What Pennsylvania Can Learn from Ohio's New Solar Access Law
DESCRIPTION:Presented by: Solar United Neighbors \nLast year\, a bipartisan group of Ohio legislators passed a sweeping Homeowners Association (HOA) reform bill into law\, formerly Senate Bill 61.

During this webinar\, hear from an Ohio legislator\, a solar installer\, a homeowner\, and a homebuilder who helped to pass this solar access law in Ohio. Discover what motivated them as business owners and organizations to get involved and learn the lessons they share for passing a bipartisan solar access law that protects homeowner property rights and helps local businesses grow.
