Voice of the Landowner: Navigating Community Relations and Local Government

This session addresses both community dynamics and local government engagement when considering renewable energy projects. Landowners are often absent from local meetings, yet their voices are powerful—elected officials need to hear directly from those hosting projects. This session features landowners who have spoken publicly about their experiences, offering practical strategies for: having productive conversations with neighbors, addressing concerns honestly, maintaining relationships regardless of differing opinions, understanding the permitting process, engaging with zoning boards and county commissioners, and advocating for property rights at public hearings.

Presenters:
Pete Ferrell, Kansas Landowner & REFA Board Member
Scott Fritz, Indiana Landowner
Lisa Dan, Midwest Outreach Director – Center for Energy Education
Jeff Risley, Executive Director – REFA
