Westerly zoning officials are taking up a proposal from a company that wants to build a solar energy park as part of the town's green energy initiative.

The Westerly Sun reports a hearing on the proposal from Middletown-based rTerra has been scheduled for Aug. 1.

The company, already designated as the town's solar energy partner, wants to build a 1 megawatt solar array with 3,500 photovoltaic panels on White Rock Road, next to the town's Water Department building.
