From the meeting
At its October 20, 2026 meeting, the board considered an annexation agreement for the Earthrise property owned by Lincoln Generating Facility, LLC and proposed by Lincoln Solar Energy, LLC. The deal supported a temporary construction yard for a substation project and a solar facility, with underground electrical lines and a 20-year term. It also set a $500,000 payment obligation tied to timely permit issuance.
The site was already in motion, so follow-on engineering, permitting, and construction support are the sales angles.
