Issue #323

From Dubois County

Good afternoon, Reader,

Today's headlines include a story about residents pushing for Commissioners to take more action to regulate the Crossvine Solar project.

The only decision made was to close a road to adjust for the boring the company wants to perform. Something they already were permitted to do, but they want to close the county road they are going under.

Residents had a list of issues including unsafe driving by trucks in the area, damage to local property and inadequate plume studies.

Check it out.

We also have some pics of kids playing kickball.

From Dubois County with love.

Matthew and Amy Crane
