As president of the Wardtown Mobile Home Cooperative, I want to express my support for L.D. 1649, the comprehensive solar policy.
The park, a nonprofit co-op of 60 mobile home owners, has the land and the means to own and maintain solar infrastructure by ourselves. More importantly, we have the need for cheaper solar power and have the desire to convert this park to solar, but we simply can’t do it unless L.D. 1649 is passed.
Solar is for all income brackets now, not just the wealthy. The price of solar has come down markedly and, with the help of a power-purchase agreement – coupled with bulk purchase – we, too, will be able to convert to solar.
Please encourage your legislators to override the governor’s veto of this bill and pass L.D. 1649 on Friday.
