Effingham County has received notice from Mason Plains, LLC (Nexamp) that the company has withdrawn its application for a Special Use Permit for a Commercial Solar Energy Facility. The proposed site was located near 300th Avenue and 1275th Street, near Mason. The application was originally filed with the County on April 23.
Effingham County Board Chairman Josh Douthit said as a result, the Solar Special Use Application Public Hearing scheduled for July 15 is canceled, and the Special Use Permit application is no longer under consideration by the Effingham County Board and will not move forward.
