SELBY Town Council are continuing to increase their green credentials with plans to fit solar panels to the town hall roof.
Town council leader Steve Shaw-Wright said the panels, costing a total of £9,000 for purchase and fitting, would be similar to the ones already fitted to the community centre roof in Scott Road.
He said this would provide cheap electricity for the council and also a small income due to a 42 pence feed in tariff to the national grid.
The panels would be fitted at the back of the town hall building on the roof of the extension.
“This is one of a number of initiatives we have planned. Others include the capture of grey water.
“This means providing a water capture tank for rainwater and recycling it. We would urge the council to take up such initiatives.”
