Personally I think solar panel farms are a blight on the land,

but this quote certainly rings true as the MAP issue shows.

"It is never enough with these organizations because it seems to me it's either their way or the highway," said Six Flags attorney Raymond Shea.

I would prefer to see installations like these on remediated superfund sites, landfills, on top of buildings etc. On the positive side my understanding is that 99% of the parks electricity needs will be powered by the new solar installation. Removing coal generated electricity and replacing with Solar is a good thing. The land will be assessed at a higher tax rating placing some much needed tax dollars into the local government. The hyperbole that some of the environmental groups have used to fight this project is absurd.
