(Linn County, IA) -- Many Linn County residents see the reopening of Iowa's only nuclear plant in Palo as good for jobs and the local economy as a whole.
That's what the Board of Supervisors heard last night at one of three public meetings on a rezoning request by NextEra Energy to the re-start the Duane Arnold nuclear plant that was closed five years ago.
NextEra has a ten-year purchase agreement to supply power from the plant to Google's planned data centers in Cedar Rapids.
Dates and locations for the next two meetings will be posted this week.
