Permits, power and roofs in Polk County

Outside the city limits, Polk County handles permits, and Cedartown, Rockmart and Aragon each have a city hall that may want the paperwork instead, so check the address before the array comes down. Carroll EMC is a member-owned co-op that sets its own terms for home generation, and Georgia Power runs a separate process, so the bill decides which rules apply. Cedartown's older neighborhoods, including the Northwest Cedartown and South Philpot Street historic districts, hold early twentieth century houses with board decking and steep, simple roofs. Goodyear Village runs to small mill cottages with little room for a big array. Out in the county, between the ridges, farmhouses and manufactured homes often wear metal. Spring storms rolling in from Alabama bring hail and wind, and big oaks in the older neighborhoods drop limbs when ice storms come through.

Along the Silver Comet Trail through Rockmart and out toward Van Wert and Fish Creek, homeowners run into arrays from out-of-town installers that have since disappeared, with no local contact for warranty work. In Cedartown, near Big Spring Park, the other familiar problem is an aging roof under the panels that an insurer wants replaced.
