ITHACA, N.Y. (WHCU) — Plans are changing for a green energy project in the Town of Ithaca.

The Planning Board recently approved modifications for a solar array system on Mecklenburg Road. Developer Ryan McCune says the change involves repositioning a voltage line.

“This request was precipitated by the landowner, who upon further reflection, decided that he did not want us to disturb the soils in that front area, because he wanted to continue farming them,” he says.

The new line will not cross the farm field. Instead, it’ll run along the road.
