Summary
After closed-session deliberations and counsel recommendation the Board granted preliminary approval to a development agreement with RWE Clean Energy, LLC for the Pottawattamie Wind Project subject to final approval.
Following closed-session consideration of pending negotiations and legal advice, the Pottawattamie County Board of Supervisors granted preliminary approval for a development agreement with RWE Clean Energy, LLC concerning the Pottawattamie Wind Project. The motion recorded roll-call results with Supervisors Shea, Miller and Jones voting yes, Supervisor Wichman voting no, and Supervisor Jorgensen absent for the final vote.
The Board’s minutes show the action followed a recommendation from the County Attorney after a closed-session discussion permitted by Iowa Code; the approval was preliminary and explicitly subject to final approval and completion of further steps and documents.
The preliminary approval moves the county into negotiation and finalization steps for a development agreement tied to a large-scale renewable energy project; the Board did not record final contract terms in open session.
