SUBMIT The Online Petiton Below:
Douglas County, KS & Johnson County, KS are both being approached by energy companies with potential proposals for massive Industrial Utility-Scale Solar and Lithium-ion Battery Storage Facilities. Although utility-scale solar facilites could provide clean energy, they could also degrade the quality of life for hundreds of area residents and negatively impact agriculture, wildlife, existing businesses and long-term economic growth.
Please add your name below to join with us in urging the Douglas & Johnson County Commissioners to adopt regulations that will safeguard area residents, agriculture, wildlife, businesses and long-term economic growth while accommodating the need for responsibly designed and placed Industrial Utility-Scale Solar Facilities.
CLICK HERE to view an aerial map of just one proposed Utility-Scale Solar Facility project site that energy company NextEra has been working on securing ground leases for over the last 3 years. The map also displays homes that are 0 – <1 mile from this particular site. This project alone would turn 3,200 to potentially 6,000 acres of agriculturally zoned land into Industrial Utility-Scale Solar. The massive footprint of these projects will impact our communities in many ways. How do you feel about these types of industrial projects around populated areas?
Your contact information in the form below will only be shared with Douglas County, KS and Johnson County, KS elected Commissioners, appointed Planning Board Members and Planning Staff. Your contact information will NEVER be shared with any other parties.
The comments portion ONLY of your submission may be shared with the public.
Thank you for taking the time to contribute your voice!
