lbruning, Thank you for posting the Board Meeting Notes for the Claverack Creek Solar LLC Site and the Catskill View Solar LLC Site.

They were quite interesting. I was surprised to see such small projects using such large battery arrays. I also noticed they both referenced a tax map. Do you know if the local tax map is available online?

One final question. For informational purposes, could you tell me if the land they are wanting to use is hilly or flat land?
Thanks again for such an informative post.

While MIT may have some great minds, it's apparent that California officials do not.

There is no way they are going to reach 100% renewable energy. This crap has gotten so far out of hand that if we don't find a way to unite and keep our elected officials from encouraging all of this nonsense, we will not have have a safe place to live anywhere on this planet.
