We commend Augusta County for the time and effort put into making sure solar projects in the county are well-sited and successful and that valuable natural resources and the quality of life of our communities are included in local planning efforts.
Tell Page Supervisors to stay the course with the solar ordinance!
We are very concerned that the carefully crafted protections in the ordinance may be removed and/or weakened.
Work has begun again along Happy Creek, following a revised erosion and sediment control plan and the posting of work plans and permits on site as required.
We hope this list can serve as a resource for those who want a better plan for Happy Creek in Front Royal.
Augusta County Considers Round Hill Solar Project
Strata Solar requests a special use permit for an 83 MW utility-scale solar facility 1.5 miles north of Stuarts Draft.
Communities along the proposed route have already begun to envision their towns with a Shenandoah Valley Rail Trail.
The idea of converting the unused north-south rail corridor in Shenandoah and Rockingham counties to a multi-use trail was sparked back in 2016 when the town of Woodstock formed the Woodstock Exploratory Rails to Trails Committee.
Disappointed by Lack of Action on Solar Ordinance
On a nighttime stroll or drive around your neighborhood or town, are you aware that lighting decisions have been (or can be) made that influence your experience?
