Commission hears of pre‑application meetings for 3 MW solar project and Niagara groundwater withdrawal
Summary
Staff reported pre‑application activity for a proposed 3 megawatt solar project near the town limits and a possible groundwater withdrawal permit by an entity named Niagara; community meetings were recommended and notices will be shared with commissioners when scheduled.
PC staff told commissioners that developers have begun pre‑application meetings for two projects of local interest: a proposed 3 megawatt solar facility planned near the outskirts of the town limits and an initiative by "Niagara" to pursue a groundwater withdrawal permit for property off Route 40. Staff advised both applicants to hold community meetings and said the planning office will forward notices and materials to commissioners when those meetings are scheduled.
Staff described the items as early‑stage pre‑applications and said timing is not yet definitive; community meetings would be used to share project details with residents before formal applications or permit filings are submitted.
