Resident urges caution over proposed anaerobic digester; district says township has approval authority
Summary
A resident told the Twin Valley School District board she opposes a proposed anaerobic digester near district property on safety grounds. Superintendent Gloria said the district will monitor the review but that Canarbon Township holds approval authority and must answer technical questions.
Stephanie Griffin told the Twin Valley School District board during public comment that she opposes the proposed anaerobic digester planned in Canarbon Township, citing safety concerns and ongoing research into the technology.
Superintendent Gloria responded on behalf of the district, saying the board and administration prioritize student safety and are conducting due diligence. She said the district is a neighboring entity but does not have approval power over the township project. The township retained an expert to assist its planning commission, and the district is awaiting any public report or testimony that expert may produce. Gloria encouraged residents with concerns to engage directly with township officials, who hold the authority to approve or deny the proposal.
Board members did not take further action at the meeting; Gloria said the district will continue to monitor the review process and the township’s technical inquiries of the applicant.
