Peru Plans To Share Opinion With State On Ameren's Transmission Line Proposal
The city of Peru wants its opinion heard when it comes to an Ameren transmission line project.
The power company is asking the Illinois Commerce Commission to approve a 21-mile transmission line from Peru west to a substation in Princeton. Peru is supportive of the high-voltage transmission line, as long it’s Ameren’s “Primary Route” and not an “Alternate Route”. The primary route of the transmission line takes it further north, further away from impacting businesses on the north end of Peru.
Open houses on Ameren’s transmission line proposal have taken place in both Peru and Princeton. You can find out more about the proposal by clicking here
