Despite objections from neighbors, Derry Township Supervisors approved a permit for a proposed solar farm along Newhouse Road. The Trib reports that supervisors said they were not happy with the decision but the plans for the 11,000-panel solar array met the requirements for a related township ordinance. Supervisor Steve Siko said the permit approval is contingent on an agreement between the developer, New York-based CVE North America, the company’s contractor and the supervisors — verifying that the array will be constructed as specified. CVE also must post a bond equal to 110% of the cost of eventual decommissioning of the array. Siko said the township remains in talks with the developer to determine that cost figure.
