VOTE NO ON PROPOSED SOLAR POWER PLANT IN SPOTSYLVANIA, VA AND / OR CHANGE LEGISLATION THAT NOW LIMITS THE REVENUE WE CAN TRULY GENERATE FOR OUR COUNTY FROM SUCH A MASSIVE PROJECT THAT DOES NOT CURRENTLY BENEFIT US DIRECTLY. IN FACT, THEY WILL MAKE BILLIONS WHILE WE HAVE TO PAY UPFRONT COSTS TO BUILD A PUBLIC WATER SUPPLY TAKING APPROXIMATELY 4 MILLION DOLLARS OUT OF THE MOUTHS OF OUR RESIDENTS (TAXPAYERS) WITH NO PROMISE OF REIMBURSEMENT. HAVE YOU READ THE CONTRACTS NOT MADE AVAILABLE TO THE ACTUAL RESIDENTS IT WILL IMPACT AND REVIEW WITH OUR ATTORNEYS TO MAKE SURE YOU SINCERELY BELIEVE WILL BENEFIT OUR COUNTY. FAWN LAKE, A SUPERIOR SUBDIVISION IN OUR AREA, HAS ALREADY BEEN DRAMATICALLY IMPACTED BY THE CLEAR CUTTING RIGHT UP TO THEIR BACK DOOR. NOT TO MENTION THE IMPACT ON THEIR PROPERTY VALUES FROM THIS UGLIFICATION. WHO GIVES A FOREIGN COMPANY, OUT OF STATE, THE UPFRONT MONEY OUT OF TAXPAYERS POCKETS TO GET THEIR BUSINESS STARTED? ARE THEY SOLVENT? WHAT'S THEIR TRACK RECORD AND HOW LONG HAVE THEY BEEN AROUND? LONG ENOUGH TO KNOW WHAT MESS THEY LEAVE BEHIND, EVEN IF THEY LAST 35 YEARS? IF YOU DECIDE TO DO IT DESPITE OUR OBJECTIONS, CAN YOU SLEEP WELL AT NIGHT AND KNOW THAT YOU TRULY MADE THE RIGHT DECISION FOR US AND NOT YOUR EGOS?

It’s not beneficial to our area, our residents, our wildlife or our air quality....not to mention our lost revenues & out of pocket increase in power costs!

Big corporate energy can build where there are no homes, no history and no people.

Clear-cutting Virginia forests and fields for a solar energy plant that produces power in average less than 40% of the time is a waste of our state’s habitat and natural resources. Don’t turn green Virginia brown with these massive solar plants! #solarspill

This is a massive intrusion on our beautiful county and another liberal aggressive push to force their agenda down our throats.
