The fight over a wind farm in DeWitt County looks like it is headed to a second round.

Tradewind Energy Alta Farms II Project Development Director Tom Swierzcewski says they are planning to re-apply for their project in the northwest corner of DeWitt County and are underway in preparing their new application.

Despite a rejection from the DeWitt County Board in late April, Tradewind still feels good about their chances at getting an application approved. Swierzcewski believes County codes are very modern and hopes once they submit their application, they can quickly get back before the County Board.

Since the rejection of the application, the Tradewind office on the square has been, according to Swierzcewski, surprisingly busy. He feels there is still a silent majority of people that support the project. 

If Tradewind gets the application submitted in the second half of the year, the proposal could be back before the County Board in the early part of 2020.
