Solar Farm Proposal Panned By Environmental Commission

August 16, 2016 Environment

env comm meeting
The township Environmental Commission has panned a Davidson Avenue company’s plan to remove more than 5,000 trees to build a solar farm.

A township company’s plan to create a 9-acre solar farm has gained an unlikely opponent – the township Environmental Commission.

The commission is opposed to the plan because the company, Rotor Clip, wants to clear more than 17 acres of trees to install the farm, and members say that’s not a good trade-off.
