NhSolarGarden.com, LLC is proposing installation of multiple solar energy electrical generation sites on Map R19-7 through R19-11, R19-12, R19-15-1 and 15-2. The proposed PILOT agreement is available for inspection at the Farmington Municipal Offices and on our website: farmington.nh.us

The PILOT Agreement is enabled by NH RSA 72:74. The spirit of the statute encourages and allows municipalities to offer alternative solutions to renewable energy generation facilities regarding taxes.
