ground-mounted solar energy generation facilities shall become effective on
January 1, 2019; however, notwithstanding any local ordinance to the contrary,
any ground-mounted solar energy generation facility existing as of January 1,
2018, shall be deemed a legally existing nonconforming use under § 15.2-2307 of

solar energy generation facility installed after January 1, 2018, is nonconforming
but shall not provide that such facility is illegal and subject to removal
solely due to such nonconformity.
