The city of Walnut Ridge is looking into solar panels to help save on energy costs.

At last night’s City Council meeting, members heard a presentation from Entegrity regarding the possibilities of installing solar panels in Walnut Ridge to save on energy cost for city owned buildings and the sewer treatment facility.

Mayor Charles Snapp is requested the Building and Land Use Committee work with Entegrity to determine the potential of solar panels for city owned savings.

The plan could also include partnering with the school or a neighboring town.
