From the meeting
At its June 16, 2026 joint meeting, the Planning Commission reviewed CEP Solar's Boxwood Solar project for up to 69 MW on Chisholm Trail and Hodges Street. The commission voted to recommend denial of the CUP, even though the proposal had already been fully presented and vetted. The company said construction could start in late 2027 or early 2028 if it ultimately moved forward, so the project still represented a live siting opportunity.
The source also points to follow-on work in road, stormwater, and construction support if the project survives Board review.
