A proposed temporary moratorium on construction of large solar farms received support from residents at Monday’s Town Council meeting.

Council president Lynn Griesemer and Councilor Patricia De Angelis co-sponsored the proposed moratorium.

If approved later this year, the idea would amend current zoning bylaws, with a ban until May 2023 on “the permitting and approval of large-scale ground mounted solar photovoltaic installations.”

Suddenly the uber leftists in Amherst MA have decided they hate looking at massive ugly solar farms that turn old fields and open space in to ugly chain link fenced eyesores.

Seems troubling to me.
They need to embrace “Big Wind” and “Big Solar”.

Time for someone to erect a bunch of giant windmills that can be seen form all the nice areas of town. If they complain, remind them we must all sacrifice to save the polar bears and stop wild fires.

The future is going to be the construction of massive treadmills, with hundreds, and thousands of people, mostly Conservative political prisoners, chained in place to power the Great Reset.
