BLACK LICK — A Denver-based renewable energy provider is poised to develop a 20-acre solar power farm along Heybert Drive, and already has clinched “good neighbor” status with the Burrell Township board of supervisors.

The supervisors on April 16 agreed to enter a host community benefit agreement with Pivot Energy, a pact that includes a no-strings-attached gift of $135,000 from the developer to the township.
