Solar settlement shows incompetence

I just read the news that Suffolk County will pay millions of dollars because it halted a solar farm at the Ronkonkoma train station [“Suffolk OKs $10.8M solar settlement,” News, Nov. 23].
Why stop a solar farm that is good for the environment and then give away $10.8 million of taxpayer money? I hope that the incompetent people who caused this are removed from Suffolk County government.
