Labette County commissioners agreed to meet with the public in two weeks to hear concerns about or support for the proposed development of a wind farm in the western half of the county. … RWE, a German utility company, is exploring the development of a wind farm that would have 50 to 75 turbines generating between 200 and 250 megawatts of power. The turbines could be 500 feet tall at the tip of the blade. RWE is collecting wind and weather information now and this data will help determine turbine location, height and the number of turbines needed.
