Cities with land that appeals to solar farm developers are trying figure out how to balance the push for renewable energy with neighbors’ concerns about the solar panel arrays.
This confirms all of my stereotypes about Hugo:
“I don’t want to not allow solar farms, but you don’t want to ruin a neighborhood’s character,” City Council Member David Strub said in an interview. “We’re all trying to be good neighbors.”
They also don't like public transit because of reasons that boil down to not liking minorities. That's probably why Bob Kroll lives there, who was the president of the Minneapolis police union during the George Floyd protests.
