Board schedules Aug. 18 hearings after approving Butler County REC underground service permit
Summary
The Butler County Board of Supervisors approved a permit for Butler County REC to install an underground service at 15947 150th St. and set two public hearings for Aug. 18, 2026 to consider utility easements for service lines at 15947 150th St. and 14068 Hwy 188.
The Butler County Board of Supervisors on Aug. 4 approved a utility permit allowing Butler County REC to install an underground service at 15947 150th St. The motion to approve the permit was made by Supervisor Wayne Dralle and seconded by Rusty Eddy; the board voted unanimously.
The board also set two public hearings for Aug. 18, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. to consider granting utility easements to Butler County REC for service lines at 15947 150th St. and at 14068 Hwy 188. Chairman Greg Barnett moved to set the hearing for the Hwy 188 location, with Dralle seconding; both hearing dates were approved with all ayes. The minutes record the two addresses and the hearing date but provide no further detail about the proposed easement terms or the REC’s engineering plans.
The scheduling of the hearings creates a formal opportunity for landowners and the public to comment before any easements are granted. The board’s actions on Aug. 4 were procedural—setting hearings and approving a permit—and did not themselves grant or modify easements. The hearings are scheduled to take place at the Butler County Courthouse on Aug. 18 at 9:00 a.m.
