BUCYRUS—The Crawford County Board of Elections Director Kim Rudd has released the official language to be placed on the November 8th ballot on the referendum for wind farms in Crawford County.
Rudd worked with Crawford County Prosecutor Matt Crall and members of the elections board in developing the ballot language.
That language was then approved by the Ohio Secretary of State’s office.
The ballot will read:
To approve the designation of the unincorporated portions of Crawford County as a restricted area prohibiting large or economically significant wind farms as defined by the Ohio Revised Code as passed by the board of commissioners of Crawford County in Resolution 2022-200. “Shall the resolution enacting the designation prohibiting large or economically significant wind farms be approved?”
If voters want wind farm development banned, they should vote “Yes” on the issue, approving of Crawford County commissioners’ vote to restrict development in unincorporated portions of the county.
Those who support Wind farms should vote “No.”
