Carport solar panels to be installed at Lafayette 2/6 to 4/7 Update

Updated: New start date of 2/6 for Phase I

Starting Monday, February 6, we will temporarily fence off sections of the Fee parking lots at Lafayette Station in order to allow Solar City to install carports with solar panels on top. Approximately 200 spaces in each section will be fenced off at a time. Please see the map below for the section locations and work dates.

The carports will have LED lighting on the underside for safety and will provide protection from the sun during the summer months. The solar power generated by the panels will help us meet our sustainability goals as well as generating cost-savings.
We realize that this will be inconvenient for you and appreciate your patience during this important work.
