County asks staff to draft road-use and decommissioning agreements for proposed RWE wind project
Summary
County staff heard examples of agreements used with other counties for wind projects and instructed Tanner Yost to draft a road use agreement, developer agreement, contribution agreement and decommissioning agreement for review in Smith County's negotiations with RWE.
Representatives Tanner Yost and Ryan Veirs briefed the board on agreements commonly used with wind-farm developers, including road-use agreements, developer agreements, contribution agreements, good-neighbor agreements and decommissioning agreements. Tabitha Owen asked Yost to draft a road use agreement, developer agreement, contribution agreement and decommissioning agreement for Smith County's review in connection with a road-use conversation with RWE.
The discussion was procedural and preparatory: commissioners asked staff to develop draft documents for future consideration rather than approving any agreement at the meeting. Yost indicated he would prepare the requested drafts for the county's review and negotiation with the developer.
