"A retired science teacher said she was concerned the panels would prevent plants in the area from growing"
The above may be a valid point, however they have now invented solar panels that allow the light wavelengths needed for plants through, while capturing the light wavelengths needed for the panels to work efficiently. So this is now less of a concern.
Even then as the Earth moves rotation and orbits the sun then I guess there will be periods where the grass the panels are on will also capture sunlight, even livestock can graze this grass (which keeps the grass trim at least).
So conern raised, problem has been solved.
As for the headline comment there is no some people I guess.
