The City Council approved the mayor sending a notice of contract default to the owner of the Buckthorn solar farm near Ft Stockton. This is the solar plant that provides Georgetown with its solar generated electricity. March 31 edition of WilcoSun
Council voted 7-0 Tuesday to authorize Mayor Dale Ross to sign a notice of event of default of the solar project power agreement with Buckthorn Westex, which comes four months after the city sustained a major budget shortfall after selling power at prices substantially below the purchase price.
Councilman John Hesser made the motion and Councilman Steve Fought seconded it. Council spent just over a minute on the motion and made no comments.
The vote was done as the first item on the agenda “Action from Executive Session.” Both City Attorney Charlie McNabb and Jack Daly, city spokesperson, declined to comment on the notice.
