Another meeting was held today in Bingham County to discuss the future of the proposed Wolverine wind turbine project. Stuart Summers has been following this story all day.
Bingham County has spent the past several months settling disputes about the proposed wind farm project in the Wolverine area. Today, the county commissioners discussed two appeals that had been received in regards to a recent decision. Both appeals were related to the Bingham County Planning and Zoning Commission's decision to give a special use permit for the windfarm. Both appeals were discussed in depth during today's public meeting and the county commission voted unanimously to deny the appeals.
County commissioners say they are relieved to have the decision made and be able to move forward with the wind farm project.
Cleone Jolley, Bingham County Commissioner: "It was appealed to us to make sure the Planning and Zoning Commission followed the law."
Today's decision by the county commissioners will allow Ridgeline to move forward with the final planning stages. I was also told today that a judicial review is still available to hear further concerns.
