i have a windfarm company trying to get me to sign a contract on a couple of my farms. had our attorneys review the contract. here is a couple things to keep in mind. they tout that you will receive X amount of money per year. fine print......but that is the maximum under best possible conditions. your actual payment will be considerably less. if the turbine goes up on your property, you can no longer hunt or target shoot on YOUR property. they get a utility easement from you. they now have rights to run utilities as they see fit on your land. as they own the easement, they can sell the easement to any gas, oil, communication or any other utility as they see fit. you have nothing to say about it, and any revenue they get from the easement, they keep, not you. if you plan on building ANY structure on your property, you need their permission. barns, grain bins, grain leg ect. if they say no, you are S.O.L. the footing is about 60 ft deep of concrete that the turbine sits on. if they leave, they only need to remove the top 6 ft of concrete. you get the rest. (these turbines are about 700 ft tall.) also, if need be, they can take another 15 acres of land to install a sub station. they will determine fair market value of the land. if you do some research, there are a large number of windfarms in the U.S. that are abandoned and the land owners are stuck with them.
