Resident urges Peters Township to fund solar feasibility study using impact-fee funds
Summary
A resident cited a 2020 recommendation from the Peters Township Environmental Quality Board calling for a solar feasibility study and urged council to use gas-drilling impact-fee funds to pay for a study and eventual township solar array.
A resident addressed council during public comment, recounting a 2019 presentation by Greg Winx of Soulbridge Energy Advisors and a 01/14/2020 Environmental Quality Board recommendation that Peters Township study the feasibility of solar PV.
The speaker said the EQB recommended a feasibility study “would provide the council with a guide for the sustainable implementation of renewable energy technology.” He asked what action council had taken in the intervening 6.5 years and suggested using gas-drilling impact-fee funds to pay for a study and later to install a township solar array.
Council’s presiding officer responded, “I don't believe we've taken any, sir,” and no follow-up motion or staff directive to initiate a study was recorded during the meeting.
