COPAKE–The Town Board agreed to shell out $1,000 in the hope of saving a bundle in energy costs and doing its part to become more environmentally friendly over the coming years.
The energy-cost-saving proposal at hand was the installation of solar panels on the Town Hall roof. Carlos Newcomb, a project manager with Hudson Valley Clean Energy (HVCE), explained the project details to the Town Board and the public at the board’s meeting the morning of Saturday, June 13.
