It appears the Piatt County Board will wait before taking a vote on the proposed Goose Creek Wind Farm for northern Piatt County.
The posted agenda for tonight’s regularly scheduled meeting of the county board does not include a vote on the wind farm.
Last week, members of the Piatt County Zoning Board of Appeals voiced their concerns about a special-use permit application for a county wind farm, and then voted to forward it to the county board without a positive recommendation.
The five-member panel voted unanimously against supporting the proposed project after 14 nights of testimony from those supporting and those against the Goose Creek Wind Farm.
Proposed by Virginia-based Apex Clean Energy, plans called for the farm to be placed on approximately 20,000 acres of farmland in rural Piatt County, with as many as 50 turbines. |
