Bluestem Energy updates commissioners on proposed wind project; county approves event license for May concert
Summary
Bluestem Energy representatives briefed commissioners on a proposed wind energy system; the board also approved a special‑designated liquor license for a concert event and discussed security plans.
Representatives from Bluestem Energy Solutions — including Matt Robinette (vice president of development), Will Greene (project developer) and Chris Shank (environmental compliance) — met with the Greeley County Board to provide an update on a proposed wind energy system. The presentation was listed on the minutes as an informational update and no formal planning action was recorded at that meeting.
Separately, at the April 24 meeting the board considered a Special Designated License application for a concert event at The Windmill on May 26–27. Applicants described planned security measures, including 14–16 off‑duty state patrol officers and coordination with County Sheriff Dave Weeks and the Spalding ambulance service. After review the board approved the license by motion and roll call vote.
The board has continued to review wind‑project materials and related land‑use and safety information through the planning and road departments, including signage recommendations from Oak Creek Engineering and related public‑safety considerations.
