Rural Wisconsin county split on solar energy project that would be among largest in nation. (Wisconsin State Journal, 12/30/2018)
Richard Jinkins lives just east of Wunderlin’s land on a 400-acre farm his family homesteaded in 1848.
Jinkins, along with Alan Jewell and another nearby farmer, are leading the charge against the project as it goes through the permitting process with the Wisconsin Public Service Commission.
