Enid Residents Sue City Council For Not Doing Their Jobs

During the podcast for Friday, October 25th, NeeAnn Clinton from Enid, in Garfield County, talked with us about the 5000 acre solar installation that is being planned for just north of Enid. Many residents are not in favor of this kind of installation because of the many risks to the community that come from solar installations - including long-lasting lithium battery fires that give off toxic fumes, use millions of gallons of water to fight and require expensive, special firefighting equipment. Unfortunately, so many of the 'green agenda' projects coming in droves to a city near you in Oklahoma, are not being regulated by Oklahoma regulatory agencies, allowing 'green energy' companies coming into the state - mostly from outside - to do business as they like. This leaves citizens trying to protect their property and individual rights without any assistance from the government they pay to protect them from unregulated industry. In this episode, NeeAnn talks about desperately trying to find an Oklahoma regulatory agency to help them stop the private company NextEra, from turning 5000 acres of productive farmland into a toxic wasteland devoid of life and finally having to SUE the Metropolitan Area Planning Commission to make them follow their own regulations. Make no mistake - this is taxpayers paying a taxpayer-paid group of elected officials to do the jobs they were elected to do. How does this happen in RURAL RED STATE OKLAHOMA?

The Governor Cares More About Being 'Open For Business' Than Protecting Protecting The Rights Of Citizens

How To Keep Your Local Government Honest - By Attending Their Meetings!

On Wednesday, May 8th, NeAnne Clinton, a resident of Enid fighting a 10k acre solar farm installation, talked about how - with a lack of transparency by both the solar company and Garfield County government - the Garfield County Conservation Coalition has been able to stay abreast of all transpiring details of the project. 

Watch this short clip to see how NeAnne - and her friends - find out what their local governmental officials are doing. 

Unfortunately, there are no Freedom of Information seminars scheduled by the Oklahoma AG's office or the Oklahoma Press Association for 2024. 

After calling the OPA it was discovered that instructional seminars only occur every other year as the Freedom of Information booklet is re-published with updated laws ad citations in those years. 

Please go to the Oklahoma Press Association Website where you can order an Open Meeting, Open Records booklet to help you understand Oklahoma's FOI laws. You can find that here: https://okpress.com/page/seminars 

Follow NeAnne's lead. The nation may be in tatters, so let's fight to protect the ground under our feet and we can only do that by attending the meetings of our local governmental entities!
