CHAPEL HILL -- Trish Hussey and Rita Leadem stretched a ribbon in front of a solar panel set up just outside the front door of the Freedom House Recovery Center on Thursday afternoon.

State Sen. Ellie Kinnaird stood beside them, wielding a blue-handled pair of scissors.

They stood – a bit incongruously, considering the event was a ribbon-cutting for a solar power project – in the shade, under the building’s overhanging roof.
