AN ECONOMIC OPPORTUNITY FOR FILLMORE AND SALINE COUNTIES
Cornhusker Harvest will create jobs and generate an entirely new source of long-term revenue for local schools, governments, and landowners. In the long term, the project promises to bring sustained tax revenue to the county for the local government and schools, as well as 30 years of local purchasing, employment, and investment. Farmers who host turbines on their property and other participating landowners will also receive annual community lease payments. These payments will continue over the projected 30-year lifespan of the wind farm, injecting millions of dollars into the economies of Fillmore and Saline counties to support local merchants, contractors, and equipment suppliers.
