Kincaid board tables Phase Two solar paperwork pending staff review
Summary
A developer who says he bought a third‑party solar array at the village wastewater plant presented bank documents Dec. 8; the Village Board voted to table any signatures until staff and legal counsel can review the power‑purchase paperwork.
Mayor Tony Peeze opened a presentation by Tyler Anderson of Phase Two Solar, who said he bought the project that supplies electricity from three third‑party solar panels at Kincaid’s wastewater plant and is seeking confirmation of the village’s purchase-of-power arrangement.
“I’m here I drove over; I’m from Phase two solar engineering consulting and repair company,” Anderson said, and identified two documents the bank required: a stoppable (stoppable?) and a true easement to secure financing. Anderson said he would own and operate the array and sell electricity to the village.
Trustees said they did not have the power‑purchase agreement (the Simple Ray document) on file and asked staff and counsel to review the materials before any village representative signs. Trustee Nelson moved to table the Phase Two documents until staff member Jared had time to review the contract; Trustee Dees seconded and the board voted unanimously to delay action.
The board did not adopt or reject the proposal on Dec. 8; members said the delay is to ensure the village’s existing purchase obligations and rights are preserved and to allow the clerk and attorney to reconcile the paperwork with the village’s records.
Next steps: the documents will be reviewed by village staff and counsel and the item will return to the board when staff has had a chance to verify the power‑purchase agreement and the bank’s requested easement language.
