Hearings on Wind Ordinance to hear opponents of the changes

Those supporting changes to the county wind ordinance concluded their arguments at the July meeting.  Those opponents of the changes (so called Pro-Wind faction) will have an opportunity to present their case at this Tuesday’s ZBA meeting.  Mainstream, a wind turbine developer with interest in Northern Boone County is scheduled to present.

It appears that this meeting and possibly another in September will be sufficient for the ZBA to reach their recommendation.  No other cases are scheduled for this Tuesday’s meeting so the entire 2-3 hour meeting should be devoted to the Wind Energy text amendment.

These ZBA hearings are the only scheduled public hearings prior to the eventual vote by the Boone County Board.
