Sorry for this late post. Had posted the material below this morning and just now discovered it had not posted. Sorry for the problem. 

La Veta made the front page of the Denver Post business section this Sunday with this story: http://www.denverpost.com/business/ci_13883475

The story reported on the efforts of La Veta area citizens to stop a major wind farm just a few miles northwest of town, bordering US 160 and west of Yellowstone road (the county road that takes one from 160 to highway 69, straight north of La Veta). RES America has proposed a large farm on Crawford’s land at the base of Silver Mountain. The citizens took their case to the Huerfano County Planning and Zoning Board where the board opposed the wind farm. Commissioners may overturn at meeting of !2/09, as they did with the cell tower north of La Veta.
