Guests

William Seaman was present at the meeting to review with The Trustees some new information he had collected in his campaign against the Emmerson Creek Wind Farm. Mr. Seaman reported that Apec Clean Energy had submitted its application containing 5293 pages for the Emerson Creek Wind Farm to the Ohio Power Siting Board. He said in a recent local open meeting held by the Power Siting Board they were handed a resolution against the Wind Farm containing 132 signature from residents of Ottawa County. Mr. Seaman said that both Erie and Huron Counties have now voted against any form of tax break or “Pilot” program for the Wind Farm, which he hopes will further defer the development of the project. In conclusion he said one of his hopes is that he will persuade the involved entities to each pass a resolution against the development of the Wind Farm, which he will presented to the Power Siting Board when they meet in Columbus. The Trustees “thanked” Mr. Seaman for coming to the meeting
