🚨 DANGER. Today, the Connecticut Siting Council will hold a straw poll on the proposed expansion of Gravel Pit Solar in East Windsor (Docket 492A). This expansion would permanently convert hundreds of acres of prime farmland and forest into industrial-scale solar infrastructure. ⚖ A final decision is expected in March. 📧 Public comment closes February 26. Email the Connecticut Siting Council before decision day: siting.council@ct.gov Subject: Docket 492A Your email becomes part of the official record. We currently have 1,907 petition signatures, demonstrating strong local concern. Yet only 47 emails have been submitted directly to the Siting Council. Petitions matter. But emails entered into the official docket matter even more. East Windsor deserves careful siting — not rushed approvals. ⸻ 📣 TODAY at 1:00 PM — CSC Straw Poll Vote The Connecticut Siting Council will hold a straw poll vote today at 1:00 p.m. regarding the Gravel Pit Solar Expansion.
