The Stony Point Town Board passed a law at the end of
January allowing for large-scale solar generating facilities.
"We're always looking for clean, safe, renewable energy
sources," Stony Point Supervisor Jim Monaghan said. "Solar energy has
been getting more and more popular."
Monaghan said many residents in Stony Point have already
opted to use solar panels at their homes, but there were no laws in place to
allow a large solar panel field within the township.
