Invenergy Wind Farm Approved

Another local wind farm gets the green light. The McLean County Board voted 10-8 to let Chicago-based alternative energy company Invenergy build its proposed McLean County Wind Energy Center near Chenoa and Lexington.  The board also voted 10-8 against an amendment that would have added requirements to get paid objective, third-party assessments of the issues of sound of the turbines, where they should be placed, whether they'll impede business and how they'll affect local creeks and wildlife.
