The City of Nixa has been given the Missouri Municipal League’s Innovation Award in the Large City category for the second year in a row. This year’s award was given to the city of its development of the state’s largest solar farm. Nixa partnered on the project with Gardner Capital and MC Power.
Last year, the award was given to Nixa for developing the Community Alternative Sentencing Court.
Nixa Mayor Brian Steele says the solar farm is saving Nixa utilities $2.5 million dollars and its reducing the city’s carbon footprint.
