We have a 300 acre solar “farm” going in to an adjacent county that is largely agricultural and rural. A number of homeowners around the site had a blowout because they said it would “change the character” of the area.
I’m not sure how going from grassy meadows with cattle grazing to a large solar farm with grass growing under it would change the “character" of anything. Sure, it’s going to look different, but functionally, the land will remain unchanged. For that matter, I would welcome it strictly from the standpoint that it would keep some people away…. -D > On Dec 31, 2018, at 2:33 PM, Peter Frederick via Mercedes > <mercedes@okiebenz.com> wrote: > > We have a 450 acre solar farm going in across the road from my house next > year.
