Wadena County Board of Commissioners County board gives nod to $7.5 million energy project Renewable Energy Wind Turbine may create over 90 jobs.
January 13, 2012
In 2010, the county approved a Conditional Use Permit (CUP) for Russell and Susan Nystrom to construct a commercial-grade wind turbine for renewable energy on their property in Section 8 of Aldrich Township.
A year after issuing a CUP, the county can revoke it if construction has not yet begun, but the Nystroms have provided written proof that progress has been made on the $7.5 million project. Based on this proof and the recommendation of the Wadena County Planning & Zoning Commission, the Wadena County Board of Commissioners has agreed to extend the CUP 12 more months as of the board’s regular monthly meeting Tuesday, December 13.
