DeWitt County Board Chair Reacts to Last Week's Presentation From Enel Green Energy

Last week, the DeWitt County Board heard from representatives from Enel Green Energy who told the Board leadership within the organization had been restructured and were remorseful over the deterioration of the relationship between the two sides.

 

Count County Board Chair Dan Matthews in the camp of 'wait and see'. On the WHOW Morning Show Friday, the Board President told Regional Radio they've heard this all before and nothing changed.

Matthews admits it was nice to have people present and now to have someone local to direct questions to. But he remains concerned about the issues that have been impacting local residents for the roughly year-plus that the farm has been operational.

Representatives last week told the Board they had only received one official complaint regarding the wind turbine issues but Matthews found that hard to believe given the fact so many people are watching to make sure Enel is doing what they said they would.

Matthews credits the personal approach taken by Enel this time around and reiterated his stance to give these individuals a chance to be better in their efforts but stressed the Board and community would be holding them accountable.
