What's Up Wednesday 2/22 Stop Solar Farms!
Today Ann sits down with two of the many organizers of Stop Solar Farms DeKalb, Indiana, Jessica Shull and Andrew Provines.
Many solar companies are pushing to lease or buy THOUSANDS of acres throughout all of Northern Indiana. They have recently made it to county DeKalb County, IN.
You didn't know this? Neither do many other people.
That is why we sat down so that you could get an overview of all that has taken place, and what you can do to "help maintain the little piece of Indiana we call home."
Please plan on attending the County Commissioners' meeting Monday, February 27 @ 6 pm
The meeting will take place in Commissioners' Courtroom on the second floor of the DeKalb County Courthouse, 100 S. Main St., Auburn.
The meeting will include discussion on the textual amendments to the Unified Development Ordinance, Section 9.05.
