Not-in-My-Backyard Activists Want Grandview to Flip-Flop on Solar. And that’s UNFAIR to Farmers!

Changing Zoning is Unfair to Farmers

Existing zoning regulations in Grandview allow farmers to lease their land for solar. Changing zoning now is unfair to farmers who followed the rules and did what they thought was best for their families. That’s why we shouldn’t change the zoning laws. Let’s support our farmers, and their property rights to use their land as they see fit.

We need solar supporters like you to attend!

We know that the noisy opponents of solar energy are trying stop this project by spreading fake news about solar energy.

The only way solar will move forward is if people like you show up at the hearing to let your local elected officials know that Spencer County residents support solar.

Talking Points about Grandview Solar

Grandview Solar will bring:

  • More than 100 project construction jobs

  • $23 million in new tax revenue to the County

  • Homegrown, clean energy to power 13,000 homes

Solar leasing is a private property issue and it’s not right for our elected officials to prevent farmers from using their land as they see fit - especially since farmers followed the rules are are counting on the revenue to help support their families.

Grandview Solar can help fund things like road improvements, new school facilities and keep taxes low by making substantial property tax payments.

Supporting solar supports farmers too! Lease payments diversify a farmer’s income, sometimes even helping to keep the farm in the family.

Opponents of solar often make false or misleading claims.  Get the facts in our FAQ.

Solar can help provide a better future for Spencer County, our children and grandchildren.  Don’t leave it to chance – show up at the hearing and let local officials know Spencer County supports Grandview Solar!
