Good morning, Folsom. Here's your local news at a glance for Wednesday, the 3rd of September.
COMMUNITY NEWS
- ➤ A proposed utility-scale solar project along Prairie City SVRA's boundary is under review, and nearly 500 local groups fear it will harm off-road events like the Hangtown Motocross Classic — they warn that the 200-megawatt solar system with battery storage may reduce open space and change the park’s look. County officials will soon decide on the plan as riders, conservationists, and local business advocates urge that the park remain accessible and true to its long-held recreational use. Folsom Times
- ➤ Castle Park, Folsom’s wooden playground built by local volunteers in 1996, will close in the first week of September for a $1.1 million renovation led by Folsom Parks and Recreation. The project will update safety standards and preserve its charm—residents can support the effort by buying personalized bricks or fence slats as community fundraising continues with construction set to begin in October.
