GEORGETOWN, Del. (AP) -- The Sussex County Council has adopted new rules that will make it easier to have windmills and wind turbines in residential areas.

Officials say that applicants will now need just a county building permit, instead of board approval. However, each application will need engineering certification, be subject to inspection and meet other criteria such as setbacks from property lines.
