Plainfield Proposed Trash-to-Energy Facility Withdrawn
Key Takeaways
- Plainfield trash-to-energy proposal withdrawn
- Officials urge residents to stay involved
- Communities demand a voice in local decisions
- Opponents aim to keep the facility off the table
On Thursday, I joined Senator Heather Somers, Rep. Doug Dubitsky, local officials, and area residents in Plainfield to discuss the proposed trash-to-energy facility and what comes next.
While we are grateful the proposal has been withdrawn, my colleagues and I reiterated that we cannot let our guard down. Our communities deserve a voice in decisions that affect our neighborhoods, our environment, and our quality of life.
I’ll continue standing with Plainfield and our surrounding towns to fight against this facility. I encourage residents to stay informed, stay involved, and keep speaking up. Your voice matters, and we need our communities to remain united to make sure this proposal stays off the table.
Thank you to everyone who has stepped up to protect our communities. We must keep the pressure on and make sure local voices are heard!
