Summary

Opposition groups and residents said they will organize, hold public meetings and seek to intervene in the PSC docket; presenters said they will circulate the Wisconsin docket when filed and continue local outreach with March open houses.

Residents and landowners told the board they plan to organize and push back on routing choices once the Wisconsin CPCN docket is filed. Multiple speakers urged coordinated action: Michael Brown recommended filing as interveners rather than only commenting, and Sarah Bratnober announced a public meeting of the local opposition group and encouraged broader regional coordination across Crawford, Vernon and Richland counties because neighboring developer Transsource will build adjacent segments.

Presenters agreed to provide docket notifications and said they will meet with town clerks and supervisors; they committed to follow up on unanswered landowner requests and to continue the scheduled public open houses in March. The exchange reiterated the two practical tracks for residents: (1) continued local outreach and participation in the developer’s open houses and (2) formal participation in the PSC docket through comment or intervention once the application posts. A local organizer noted a large public meeting planned for Sunday and encouraged landowners to attend and coordinate legal and technical resources.
