I am fully AGAINST SUNNICA. Whoever in their right mind thinks it’s okay to disrupt all the farmland, the countryside, for a solar farm so close to villages, homes, schools and business. The battery’s themselves pose a massive fire risk, why should I have to live in an area where I fear for my family. Who wants to live in an area where there is such a high threat there has to be an evacuation process! In a village with essentially one road in and out per side! What happens to the land and the battery’s once they have reached the end of their life? What can the land be used for after? Where do you propose to dispose of the battery’s and panels? Yes solar is the way forward. But as such scale and close proximity to villages is just selfish and unnecessary. Go to the middle of the country.
