Prof. Klass Interviewed on NBC KARE 11 News Regarding Solar Panels

Professor Alexandra Klass was interviewed on NBC KARE 11 News with regard to a story on a homeowner in Burnsville, MN who wants to install solar panels on his home to save energy but has been prohibited from doing so by his homeowners' association for "aesthetic reasons." Some states, like CA, have prohibited homeowners' associations from banning solar panels but Minnesota has not yet enacted such a law. The story highlights how the traditional authority of homeowners' association to regulate aesthetic issues is now coming into conflict with state and local policies regarding energy efficiency and climate change.
