Raymond mayor discusses Hinds County solar farm
SUMMARY: The Hinds County Board of Supervisors approved the controversial Soul City Solar farm near Raymond and Bolton. Apex Clean Energy will own it, installing panels along several roads. Raymond Mayor Isla Tullos requested a one-year delay to study the benefits and drawbacks and set guidelines for solar farms. Despite her concerns about the impact on local aesthetics, Apex claims the farm will generate significant tax revenue and is environmentally beneficial. Mississippi Public Service Commissioners emphasized a rigorous approval process to ensure safety, reliability, and efficiency. They encouraged ongoing engagement with developers and stakeholders throughout the project.
