Woodford County wanting to facilitate El Paso wind farm votes
A Woodford County Board committee voted Monday to recommend that the board act as a "facilitator" in bringing the El Paso Wind Farm to a vote.
"To me it's just a total failure of leadership," central services committee Chairman Gary Jones of East Peoria said. "Maybe this does no good, but I know what doing nothing does."
Jones said the intent is not to recommend a vote for or against the wind farm, but an effort to get an agreement that the full board can vote on.
