HelioSage Energy would like to recruit your support for the proposed solar farm off Craig Rd. ("Project") This Project will bring numerous benefits to the County and area in general:


- Over $850,000 in tax revenue generated

- 150-200 construction level jobs created

- Necessary generation resource for Forked Deer Electric

- Promotes energy independence

- Produces clean, safe energy


HelioSage has gone to great lengths to make the following points:


- The Project will be shielded from view by a vegetative screen (see rendering of Craig Rd. Solar Farm after construction).

- There is no evidence of real estate values depreciating as a result of solar farms.

- After many government sanctioned studies, there have been no health or safety risks greater than any other commercial use found with solar farms.

- There is no glare associated with solar farms and they make no noise.


With all of this in mind, we hope you will call your local County Commissioners and other local officials to express your support of this Project.

The feedback regarding the proposed project remains steady as we continue to answer questions about regional energy independence. I am currently preparing a detailed summary of the safety data to provide to the local officials who will cast the deciding votes.

The momentum surrounding the proposed solar farm transition is significant. It is encouraging to see such widespread interest in the positive impact this project will have on our local infrastructure.

It's a win-win situation. It should be the most positive and beneficial opportunity for the county.I wish there were more solar projects around the state.

I am opposed to this solar farm being placed so close to residential propoerty, mainly mine! I live within 1/2 mile of this property. I do not believe that it will be shielded from view of Fuller Road and I do not believe it will not lower property values for those who have to look at it from their front porch. This in turn will lower my property values when these are used as comps.

We need the jobs and the tax money in this county. Stop holding us back from progress.
