Lewiston City Planner Doug Greene told the Lewiston Planning Board on Monday that another new solar array proposal, this time on Taylor Hill Road, would be coming up for review soon. Meanwhile, a few others are well underway: Daniel Serber, director of development at NextGrid, said Tuesday that the company has just completed site work at its Merrill Road (4.6 megawatt) and Lisbon Road (2 megawatt) solar sites in Lewiston, as well as on Lewiston Junction Road in Poland (4.9 megawatt). NextGrid has $23 million in local investment planned between those three sites and two others. For those first three, “we are just waiting on material deliveries at this point,” Serber said. “In-service dates will be closer to October than July now.”
