When complete, the Alta Farms II wind project will continue to provide local property owners with an additional revenue source on their farmland and will benefit local entities like the school district through property taxes, but the manager of the project is touting the economic benefits of the construction of the project.
Brayten McGee is the manager of the wind farm construction in the northwest corner of DeWitt County and indicates right now there are nearly 150 workers on the job and that number is expected to double. He says that is a very big impact on the local economy.
McGee hopes anyone in the community or area with questions or concerns about the project will reach out. You can visit enelgreenpower.com/altafarms or call McGee at 888-519-6043.
