Meeting tomorrow

Just a reminder: the Clinton County Board of Commissioners is meeting tomorrow - Tuesday, Jan 29 at 9:00 a.m.  They will be in the Clinton County Board of Commissioner's Room, Courthouse, 2nd Floor, 100 E. State Street, St. Johns.

The resolution to approve Forest Hill's special land use and site plan is online here.

An excerpt of the online resolution:

"The Community Development Department shall verify compliance with all standards set forth in the Zoning Ordinance (specifically Sections 715 & 1341) prior to issuing any permits, including construction or occupancy permits. Kolano & Saha Engineers, Inc., was retained to assess compliance of the project with the audible sound limitations of the Ordinance and has substantiated that the maximum audible sound limitations from nonparticipating single-family residences has the potential to exceed the requirement less than 1% of the operational time. (See Kolano & Saha Engineers, Inc., letters attached).  The Planning Commission and now the Board of Commissioners have determined that the potential to exceed the maximum audible sound limitation less than 1% of the operational time constitutes a short-term event as permitted by the Zoning Ordinance. Maximum audible noise requirements from non-participating property lines are determined to be in compliance."

That's us - the non-participators.  We'll see tomorrow if the county will protect us or let us be harmed by this wind turbine company. 

Please attend if you are able.  If you cannot attend, please contact your commissioner before the meeting.  Their contact information is on our site's previous post.

Thank you.
