From the meeting
At the September 28, 2026 meeting, Grand Haven Board of Light and Power General Manager Robert Shelley said BLP was developing a community solar garden for customers and organizations with sustainability goals. The proposed project is a 300,000-watt solar installation with 1,000 shares priced at $570 each, and the Township was told to work with BLP to find the right number of shares to reach breakeven on its capped energy-usage reimbursement. The project is still being shaped and no purchase was approved.
