Ingersoll's million dollar solar dream is toast. Mayor Ted Comiskey confirmed at Tuesday's breakfast with the Mayor that the town is scrapping plans for a 10-megawatt solar farm once and for all. He says with the Ontario Power Authority constantly changing the rules around solar development, the town simply can't keep sitting on that land in hopes it will gain approval. "The game plan or the original rules are not the same as when it first started out. It was going to help the municipality as an income to offset taxes etcetera. That now is not materializing, we don't even know what the result is so we can't wait any longer". And so the town will once again be marketing the 40-acre parcel of land on Clarke Road and Highway 19 to industrial developers. Comiskey says the hope is new industry will bring new jobs, and residents to the town.
