Residents Throw Shade on Proposed Solar Farm in Cortlandt 

September 21, 2021 Rick Pezzullo -- A proposed solar farm the length of three football fields that would be a stone’s throw away from several homeowners in the Town of Cortlandt is not being welcomed in the neighborhood.  Since the project, located within a nearly 58-acre forest on two parcels along Red Mill Road and the end of Mill Court, first surfaced last year and during recent hearings, residents have expressed their displeasure over CVE North America’s plans to clear cut 2,800 trees and install 9,504 solar panels.

Rick Ribeiro, a 25-year resident of Mill Court whose backyard abuts the site, told the Cortlandt Planning Board in late August the development was simply “a money grab.” MORE AT https://www.theexaminernews.com/residents-throw-shade-on-proposed-solar-farm-in-cortlandt/
