ALBANY, Ga. - Leaders of a southwest Georgia city have rejected plans to build a solar farm containing 8,000 solar panels near a residential neighborhood. WALB-TV reports residents of the Country Club Estates neighborhood in Albany were relieved after the city commission struck down the proposed project Wednesday. Jasmine Williams said the proposed 25-acre solar farm would have been located just a few steps from her home.

Some suggested relocating the project to a less populated area of Albany.
