Stoughton Landfill Becoming Solar Farm?

It was suit city at Town Hall Tuesday night as Terrence Conroy of Conroy Development and Stoughton Recycling Technologies lined up a team of experts to allow him to further grow the Stoughton landfill, and to delay the capping of it once again - but for good reason.

What Robert W. Golledge, Jr., an environmental consultant from Golledge Strategies & Solutions in Canton, proposed was a 2.6 acre Solar Farm.
