Murray County residents are invited to participate in an upcoming community input session about solar energy.
Murray County is working with the University of Minnesota to map “sweet spots” for potential future solar energy installations. The project will consider financial feasibility, appropriate scale, local water quality, pollinators, and other possible benefits.
The project team wants to hear from Murray County residents about options, drivers, and benefits related to solar development.
Your input will provide:
● Understanding of community perspectives
● Insights on how the community prioritizes benefits and trade-offs
● Ideas for new opportunities for economic development
NOTE: This project is focused on mapping potential sites and identifying considerations for long-term decision-making. This project is NOT associated with any specific or planned solar development.
