STUARTS DRAFT, Va. (WHSV) — Tuesday night, members of the Augusta County Planning Commission got an earful for hours about a proposed solar project in the Stuarts Draft area from those both against and for it.
Rick Pfizenmayer’s farm is on Round Hill Drive. He said the proposed Round Hill Solar Project will impact not only nearby neighbors, but the community as well.
“It upsets me because we came to this particular area because of its rural nature, because of the beautiful landscapes of this area, the scenic Shenandoah Valley is known for,” Pfizenmayer explained.
