Public meetings on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday may just represent a microcosm of what we in Henderson County have gone through the past couple years regarding energy and its effects on residents.
Over those three days, officials will discuss electricity payments, electricity transmission, and ordinances dealing with energy issues.
At 5 p.m. Monday, the Henderson City Commission will hold a joint meeting with the Henderson Utility Commission during Henderson Municipal Power & Light’s regularly scheduled meeting. At the meeting, discussions will center around HMP&L’s proposed rate adjustments.
From 4-7 p.m. Tuesday, officials with the Reid to the Indiana Kentucky border, or RIKY, transmission line project will hold a meeting in the lodge of the Brain Injury Adventure Camp, 1001 Shooting Star Court, Robards.
Another meeting hosted by RIKY officials will be the next day, again from 4-7 p.m. This time it will be at the public building at Sandy Lee Watkins Park on Ky. 351.
Finally on Wednesday, the Henderson City-County Planning Commission will hold a special called meeting. At this meeting, the planning commission may take action, including making suggested edits to the draft ordinance for Wind Energy Conversion Systems and originating a proposed WECS ordinance and originating a proposed Solar Cap Ordinance to be forwarded to the Henderson County Fiscal Court for consideration.
