Commissioners hold hearing on Water agreement with CCE

On Aug 24 the Elmore County Commissioners held a public hearing on the Cat Creek Energy Project. This hearing was for the First Amendment to the Development Agreement for the projects Conditional Use Permits. The Amendment covers the hydroelectric portion of the proposed development.

The project’s CUPs were originally approved by the commissioners in Feb 2017 after they held two public hearings on five separate permits in November of 2016. The CUPs had made it to the commissioners on appeal of Cat Creek Energy after they were originally denied by the County Planning and Zoning Board.
