JOHNSTOWN The Fulton County Planning Board on Tuesday sent back to the town of Perth a positive recommendation on the largest solar farm project ever proposed in the county.
The board didn’t see any regional issues, but attached some stipulations to the project, and otherwise forwarded it back to the Perth Town Planning Board. County planning officials recommended “mixed species” vegetation to help screen the proposed 20-megawatt solar farm by SunEast Limestone Solar’s along Bishop Road. Also, 10 to 12-foot trees with a warranty for the life of the project are recommended. The planning board also wants to see some sort of 50-foot corridor for snowmobiles that must be mapped and documented before the project can get off the ground.
