PDC Application Rejection Appeal

The Peoria County Board has been informed by the States Attorney Office that probably all of the “no” voters will be required to give depositions by the attorneys representing PDC. Don’t expect to hear much in the news before the end of the year as almost a million documents are involved in this litigation. For more information on the original hearing and results go back to my April blogs (12) and scroll on my sidebar. Most interesting of these blogs are the testimony of Dr. Zwicky who claimed to represent 750 doctors and the correspondence between one of the leader of the opposition, Tom Edwards, and the Illinois Environmental Protection Agency. Also read the sworn testimony of Dr. David Daniel, former Dean of the College of Engineering at the University of Illinois and now President of Texas University whose testimony in my opinion was the most “expert”. Or visit www.peoriacounty.org for the over 2200 pages of testimony including the approximately 500 letters of support for this application including The Peoria Civic Federation, the Greater Peoria Chamber of Commerce, the Heartland Partnership and the Economic Development Council .

As the appeal progresses I will keep you updated on this site.
