FLORENCE: Zoning Board of Adjustment dismisses solar application

Florence Zoning Board of Adjustment held its annual reorganization meeting on Jan. 22. Above, Anant Patel (left) and William Bott raise their right hands while being sworn in to new terms as board attorney David Frank administers the oath of office. After reorganizing, the board dismissed an application, at the applicant’s request, to build a massive solar facility on nearly 140 acres along Bustleton Road — and near residential homes. Many homeowners of Burlington and Florence united last year in opposition to the project. (Photo by Jen Samuel)
