The Adair County Board of Supervisors will meet 9-a.m. Tuesday, in their Boardroom at the Adair County Courthouse in Greenfield. Among the items on their agenda, is a Public Hearing on an Ordinance amending an Assessment of Wind Energy Conversion Property, along with the 2nd and 3rd readings of the Ordinance. During a meeting late last month, the Board voted to move forward with an ordinance to cap wind turbine construction in Adair County. The board decided on a cap of 535 commercial wind energy structures in the county.

During their meeting on Nov. 6th, Tammy Baier read from her letter which expressed several concerns about the wind turbine ordinance. She asked when does the community have a right to say when enough is enough. Baier said the number of turbines is too much, and that some are being slipped in. Baier also expressed concerns  about Mid-American trespassers looking for Indian artifacts and a specific breed of bat. Among the other issues she mentioned in her letter, were with regard to the blades throwing ice, creosote left on their land, gates being left open so cattle get out, and how it is affecting our ecosystem and rural development. She requested a cap be put in place with specific language by a knowledgeable Attorney.

In other business, the Adair County Supervisors will hear reports from County Engineer Nick Kauffman, and County Auditor Mandy Berg.
