AGAWAM – A solar array farm on the north side of the old Tuckahoe Turf Farm is expected to be finished by fall of this year.
According to Town Solicitor Stephen Buoniconti, Agawam has been a part of long negotiations with Consolidated Edison, which is the utility company that will operate the array when it is built.
“We originally negotiated a lease agreement on the property,” said Buoniconti, with regard to the town’s relationship with ConEdison. “There are variables in that lease agreement that we didn’t know at the time that changed from then until now.”
