Several Newkirk residents asked the Kay County Commission Monday Morning to wait before signing a road agreement with developers that are planning to build the 70 to 80 turbine wind farm east of Newkirk. Newkirk Mayor Brian Hobbs says he wants more time to speak with Newkirk residents and the city before taking any action as Hobbs believes the citizens should share their voice. The project named Frontier Wind Farm 2, has been working with the Kay County Commission and landowners east of Newkirk for some time. Duke Energy is currently working with about 130 property owners east of Newkirk, and plan to sell their power to an unnamed company.
