URGENT UPDATE: A crucial public meeting is set to take place this evening in Monivea regarding the controversial development of the Belville Solar Farm. The meeting will begin at 7:30 PM at the Fr. Sammon Centre.

Local residents are rallying against the proposed solar farm, which would span multiple sites to the north and west of Monivea. Campaigners express serious concerns about the potential negative impacts on both the environment and the community. An online petition has already gathered over 250 signatures calling for reconsideration of the project.

This meeting is part of the early consultation phase, as the developers will not seek planning permission until later this year. Residents are encouraged to voice their opinions and learn more about the implications of the solar farm.

With renewable energy projects gaining traction globally, the outcome of tonight’s discussions could set a precedent for similar developments in the region. Community members are urged to attend and participate in this vital conversation affecting their future.

As public interest grows, the situation remains fluid, and further updates are expected following the meeting. Stay tuned for the latest developments on this important issue.
