From the meeting
At its October 20, 2026 meeting the legislature approved using committed funds to hire The Signalfire Group to evaluate battery energy storage systems (BESS) siting and end-of-life management. The county said it wanted to continue working with the firm because of its unique expertise from the solar panel recycling regulations project. The contract is not to exceed $55,000 and will draft a municipal strategy for county communities.
This is a direct follow-on services opportunity tied to a specialist consultant.
