Developer pitches two-field community solar at Trudeau Field; town moratorium remains
Summary
Our Generation presented a two-field community solar proposal for Trudeau Field that the company says could serve up to 1,500 residents and deliver up to 10% savings; the town has a one-year moratorium on community solar and the project is under APA review.
Dan Leary of Our Generation presented a proposed community solar installation at Trudeau Field (across from the school bus garage), describing two solar fields—one visible from Route 3 and one behind the tree line—and a site-specific visual presentation. Leary said the project is not a battery energy storage facility or a data center and emphasized resident savings and local tax revenue potential: up to 1,500 residents could sign up for the program and receive up to a 10% reduction on National Grid energy costs.
Supervisor Davina Thurston thanked the presenter and board members discussed the town's current one-year moratorium on community solar projects and the Adirondack Park Agency (APA) review process that the project must navigate. No public comment was recorded at this meeting on the solar proposal; the project remains at a proposal and permitting stage.
