Monmouth voters defeated a proposed moratorium on commercial solar facilities 578-350, allowing a proposal for a 55-acre facility on Ridge Road to proceed. That measure was placed on the ballot in response to a project planned by Longroad Development Co. that would place about 36 acres of solar equipment on 55 acres of leased land at 483 Ridge Road, and produce 4.95 megawatts exclusively for Bath Iron Works.
