Hamilton City Council unanimously approved the acquisition of 86 acres of land adjacent to Tylersville Road for $1.5 million, utilizing funds from the city's electric department. The decision to allocate these resources was guided by the potential for future green energy initiatives.
The specifics of the envisioned low-carbon energy projects were not disclosed by city officials in response to inquiries. Challenges associated with installing wind turbines due to the proximity to Butler County Regional Airport were acknowledged, potentially influencing the nature of future developments on the site.
The purchased land, known as Hogan Farm, is strategically situated near the bustling Hamilton Enterprise Park, which hosts various industrial ventures including the 80 Acres indoor farming facility. The proximity to this established industrial hub suggests the possibility of utilizing portions of the acquired land as an extension of the park.
In a report prepared for council by Dan Moats, the Executive Director of Infrastructure, the necessity of securing the Hogan Farm property for potential green energy endeavors was emphasized, aligning with the climate objectives outlined in President Biden's administration. The seller of the land is identified as Hogan Financial Co. LLC.
Moats highlighted the flexibility of the acquisition, stating that if not entirely utilized for energy generation, the land could be repurposed for conventional development, with conditions outlined for potential reimbursement by the General Fund.
City Manager Joshua Smith's office provided insights into the city's long-term energy planning process, indicating that considerations for infrastructure size and type, as well as potential generation opportunities, are currently underway. The decision to focus on this site was influenced by the burgeoning electric consumer base in East Hamilton and the ongoing construction of the Gateway substation in the area, emphasizing the importance of ensuring long-term reliability.
Regarding the financial aspects, negotiations with the property owner resulted in a favorable price per acre compared to recent acquisitions in the vicinity. The utilization of electric funds for the purchase reflects the intended utility-centric use of the property. However, the city remains open to economic development prospects, provided that financial arrangements ensure the Electric Fund's restitution for the original purchase price.
While public discussion during meetings has been limited due to the pandemic, the decision-making process was preceded by ample opportunities for public input, with the item initially appearing on the council agenda in February.
