We are not opposed to solar or other renewable energy sources! We ARE opposed to the manner in which the contract was entered into by the NASD Board of Education and Metrotek/Energy Alliance Group (Northampton), LLC. There was NO transparency with the entire process until the October 20th "groundbreaking", after the contract was already signed. This contract was entered into with no public comment or input. We are NOT satisfied with the proposal and DO NOT want to do business with Metrotek/EAG, LLC. We DO NOT want a 1.2 mW solar power plant, consisting of 6.5 acres, 7000+ panels, 13 feet in height, encompassing a vast majority of the play area at Lehigh Elementary School. This transaction goes against the will of the taxpayers. We are in agreement that the contract MUST be rescinded immediately. Then, a committee must be formed, and multiple proposals should be sought out to find the best options for conserving energy, saving money and selecting renewable energy alternatives that will benefit our school, our children and our community.

Petition entries using nicknames or invalid information will not be accepted.

The silence from the board is honestly infuriating but it just shows how much they want to keep us in the dark which is exactly why we have to keep pushing because losing that play area is just not an option for our kids. I keep thinking about those panels and how they just popped them up without telling anyone a single thing and it makes my head spin.

Something stinks about this contract. The board needs to scrap it and look at other options that dont ruin school property.

So mad about this. We want solar but not at the expense of our children's playground. Start over and get actual public input this time.

My kids go to Lehigh and they need that play space. 7000 panels covering the field is completely insane. Rescind this deal now.

No transparency at all. Total lack of respect for the taxpayers who pay for these schools.

This is shady as heck. Why was this done behind closed doors? We need the school board to answer for this absolute mess.

Unacceptable behavior by the board. You cant just sign away school land without telling any of us parents first.
