DeWitt County Land Use Committee Members Frustrated With Enel

The saga between DeWitt County and Enel Green Energy has been a long one with ups and downs - mostly downs from the perspective of DeWitt County Board members and residents. 

 

At Monday night's DeWitt County Land Use Committee Meeting, Zoning Administrator Liz Weikle received operational reports from Enel, which are supposed to detail any curtailment violations they committed over a certain period. While residents have been noticing and posting videos of curtailment violations, Enel claims to have none. 

 
 
 

Committee Chair Buck Carter requested that Weikle acquire more detailed operational reports for specific days correlating with the alleged curtailment violations. 

 
 
 

While some committee members would like to judge compliance of each specific alleged violation, Board Chair Joe Witte suggested against doing that at the request of State's Attorney Dan Markwell. He said not only would this be a lengthy process, but it is the responsibility of the Zoning Administrator and the State's Attorney to take action on these possible violations, not the Land Use Committee. 

 
 
 

Local Enel Representative Matthew Seville will be attending this month's County Board Meeting to address these alleged violations.
