What you need to know

On June 11, League City officials and City Council will host a presentation and discussion work session regarding battery energy storage system sites, according to agenda documents.

Community members will have an opportunity to share their input before the meeting begins at 5 p.m.


The backstory

Community Impact previously reported that on April 23, League City City Council voted to postpone making the decision to rezone a parcel of land near the east side of Caroline Street and south of FM 646 to build a lithium-ion battery storage facility.

At the meeting, city officials agreed to establish guidelines for building lithium-ion battery storage facilities and to conduct a risk assessment for worst-case scenarios.

That decision followed the city’s Planning and Zoning Commission recommending against a second battery facility due to too many unknowns.
