A WIN FOR NEBRASKA IS A WIN FOR US ALL!A US District Judge knocked the wind out of a lawsuit filed by North Fork Wind LLC and 12 County landowners against Knox County, NE, its Board of Supervisors, Planning Commission and Zoning Administrator, as well as a group of wind energy opponents. Plaintiffs alleged that, "The unequivocal goal of the proposed amendments was to prohibit or otherwise prevent North Fork Wind’s construction of the wind farm in Knox County." Judge Gerrard answered, "There’s no mechanism under Nebraska or federal law that prevents Knox County from banning commercial wind farms, so long as there is a conceivably or hypothetically rational reason to do so." He thereby dismissed the bulk of the suit, leaving a very narrow path for continuance. You can read more about it here: ... See MoreSee Less

I’d like to say we have finally truly won and local control is safe, but sadly, I cannot. This bill, or ones very similar to it, that try completely take away local control are gonna keep coming up every year until the wind energy companies finally get their way. So we need to constantly keep a close eye on this stuff and what corrupt legislators are trying to push through. Please do not lose vigilance! ... See MoreSee Less
