The Labette County Commission puts a moratorium on the construction of wind turbines in the county for 15 months. Commissioner Terry Weidert says the length of the moratorium is on recommendation from Attorney Ross Albertini.

Albertini is the city attorney in Parsons who put together the zoning plan for the city. He was asked by the Labette County Planning and Zoning board to put together an estimated timeline for a zoning plan and map and update current zoning guidelines. The commission voted 2-1 to approve the moratorium with Commissioner Cole Proehl voting no.
