Trade Wind Energy Scores Partnership With Arcosa Inc, Formerly Trinity Structural Towers, For Alta Farm II Wind Project

If DeWitt County gives the thumbs up for a wind farm project in the northwest corner of the county, the developers will be using towers built locally.

 

Tom Swierczewski, Develop Director for Trade Wind Energy told the DeWitt County Board Thursday night they have secured their partnership with Arcosa INC, known formerly as Trinity Structural Towers, for the Alta Farm II wind project.

 

 

Swierczewski says this partnership remains in line with Trade Wind's goal to keep as much of the work as possible local.

 

 

The Regional Planning Commission will begin the hearings for the special use permit January 15. The special use permit was submitted by Trade Wind Energy earlier this fall. Upon passage from the Regional Planning Commission, the special use permit will move to the Zoning Board of Appeals before, pending approval at each stop, moving on to the County Board.
