With support from Peninsula Clean Energy (PCE), the City of Menlo Park will install solar photovoltaic (PV) panels on the Arrillaga Family Gymnastics Center located at 501 Laurel St. Construction is anticipated to start Aug. 25 and take approximately six weeks, without affecting building hours of operation. This work is part of the City’s Climate Action Plan goal to eliminate greenhouse gas emissions from City operations. The project is scheduled Monday through Friday (between 7 a.m. – 3 p.m.) and the building will remain open and accessible during this time. Please pardon any noise which may result from construction activities; we thank you for your understanding and patience. Additional locations for solar PV installations through PCE’s GovPV Solar for Public Buildings program include: the Belle Haven Child Development Center, City Hall and the Menlo Park Library.
