What was once a landfill is now home to popular sports fields and might soon have another purpose: a solar garden. Golden city officials want to consider adding a community solar garden to the land at the Rooney Road Sports Complex at 101 Rooney Road, Golden. But per city charter, they need residents’ permission to use park or open space land for anything outside of recreation purposes. A community solar garden is a large collection of solar panels that individuals can buy shares of to offset their personal usage of other energy sources.
