A public hearing is set to take place Wednesday morning in Greenfield, with regard to a proposed amendment to the Northwest Wind Farm Urban Renewal Plan (URP). The meeting takes place during a regularly scheduled meeting of the Adair County Board of Supervisors.

The proposed amendment will come in the form of a resolution determining an area of the County to be an economic development area, and that the rehabilitation, conservation, redevelopment, development or a combination thereof, is necessary in the interest of the public health, safety or welfare.

Following the public hearing, which begins at 9-a.m., the Board will consider an ordinance for the division of revenues as stated under Iowa Code, for the amendment, as well as the possible waiving of the second- and third-readings of the ordinance, prior to approval.

In other business, the Adair County Supervisors will hear from County Engineer Nick Kauffman, with regard to a resolution authorizing and adding a Local Option Sales Tax (LOST) project to the Fiscal Year 2013 Budget, and a program for a bridge deck overlay at County Road N-24 Union, on G-61 (310th Street), along with the awarding of a contract for the bridge overlay project.

Prior to the conclusion of the meeting, the supervisors will discuss the sale of County property.
