After meeting on Wednesday the Adair County Board of Supervisors will hold a special session on Friday morning at 10:30am for a vote on the second reading of an ordinance amendment in regards to the Wind Energy Conversion Property. The board will take action on moving the proposed ordinance to a third reading.

The amendment will place a cap on wind turbines within the county at 530. Two current large wind turbine projects are being constructed in the county that will bring the total up to near 500 turbines. A number of other restrictions on setback distances from other properties were drafted earlier this month by the board.
