The Galva High School boys basketball team will carry the No. 3 seed into the Lincoln Trail Conference Tournament, after a vote of LTC coaches last night.
A public hearing was held at Monday’s Galva City Council meeting to discuss an amendment to the Kewanee Enterprise Zone.
Kewanee city official Kip Spear led the hearing. He said that it was simply a formality, to add four wind turbines being erected by Invenergy that had been located out of the original zone which will be in the second phase of the wind energy project.
Superintendent Doug O’Riley told the Galva School Board on Jan. 23 that if the wind turbines currently under construction are in operation on Jan. 1, 2013, assessed valuation for Galva School District will raise from $47 million to $68 million – nearly 50 percent.
Invenergy Wind LLC has reached an agreement to sell a portion of its Bishop Hill wind project to MidAmerican Energy Holdings Company.
The sale, announced Jan. 20, means MidAmerican will acquire Phase II of the wind project currently being built by Invenergy in the Galva-Bishop Hill area.
