Lower-elevation Colorado towns like Crook (~3,710 ft) tend to have wide-open roofs and ground-mount space; the tradeoff is exposure to hail and wind, which we account for in equipment and attachment choices.

Who issues a solar permit in Crook depends on local arrangements — some Colorado towns run their own building departments, others rely on the county, and electrical permits in many small jurisdictions come from the State Electrical Board. We confirm and file with the right one.
