The Board of Supervisors in Adair County will meet 8-a.m. Wednesday at the courthouse in Greenfield. The meeting kicks-off with a possible closed session with regard to discussion with legal counsel, about matters where litigation is imminent. Later during their session, the Board will hear from Dennis Kellenberg with regard to a VA Office lease, and they’ll discuss the hiring of outside counsel for Open Records matters, with possible action on the subject.

And, the Adair County Supervisors will hold a Public Hearing at around 9:30-a.m. Wednesday, along with the third reading of Ordinance 31A – An amendement to Ordinance 31 – pertaining to Wind Energy Conversion Property. That will be followed by discussion and possible action of approving Ordinance 31A. The amended ordinance sets a 2,000-foot setback from non-participating residences near Wind Turbines, and an 800-foot setback for participating property owners associated with two Mid-American Energy wind farms.

Construction on nearly 500 wind turbines at two separate sites in the County began last summer, but they’ve been with a public backlash over noise, visual pollution and bird safety concerns.
