Kent County approves 25-acre solar farm

The decision

Kent County Levy Court approved a 25-acre solar farm, making the project a county-approved development. Some members of the public opposed the proposal before the vote.

The decision was reported by Delaware Public Media. The action puts the Levy Court’s approval on record for a solar project covering 25 acres.

Public opposition

The project faced opposition from some members of the public. The Levy Court nevertheless voted to pass the project.

The decision reflects the county government’s role in reviewing and approving local development proposals. It does not change the fact that community members raised objections during the process.

What comes next

The project’s next steps will depend on the approvals and development work that follow the Levy Court’s decision. Those steps may include additional local or regulatory actions before construction, but the record cited here does not establish a schedule for them.
