The city hopes to power the proposed South Norwalk Elementary School entirely by solar energy, according to Adam Blank, attorney for the school district on the project. During the meeting, the commission also discussed the existing site plans for the proposed $76 million school, which will be South Norwalk’s first in over 40 years. Blank said the school, when construction is completed, can accommodate a maximum of 682 students, though the expected student population is closer to 85 percent, or 580 students. The 12-acre space, formerly home to the Hatch & Bailey Co., will contain the school, 127 parking spaces, an athletic field and a playground, according to the plans Blank discussed.
