As members of the Fountain County community, we strongly support the Dolphin Solar Project and urge county officials to uphold the permit that was legally secured. While we may not be direct landowners involved in the project, we recognize the enormous benefits this initiative brings to our whole community.
The Dolphin Solar Project represents a vital investment in our local economy and future. It will create jobs, stimulate small businesses, and generate millions in tax revenue that fund our schools, roads, and emergency services. This project strengthens Fountain County by supporting sustainable economic growth and community development.
Private Property Rights:
People should have the choice to decide how to use their own land. Solar leases give families a steady, voluntary income that helps keep farmland in the family and supports rural life here.
Economic Growth:
The project brings jobs to our area, including significant construction work, while also driving new business and boosting local spending that helps small businesses and workers all over Fountain County.
Community Investment:
Dolphin Solar will bring in millions of dollars in tax revenue over time, money that can help pay for our schools, fix roads, and support public safety and emergency services. The project team has also given back to local parks, schools, and nonprofits.
Energy Security and Independence:
Making clean energy right here in Fountain County means keeping energy dollars local and building a more secure energy future for Indiana. With energy needs rising, solar power is a smart, cost-effective way to meet them quickly.
We believe Dolphin Solar will leave a positive mark on our community here in Fountain County: by growing our economy, caring for the environment, and making us proud of what we’ve done together. We stand united in support of the project and urge county leaders to reject any attempts to revoke its permit, honoring the legal process and the shared benefits it delivers to all residents.
