Siouxland Site Rezoning
Hyperion embraces excellence and the core belief that outstanding economic value and environmental sensitivity are not mutually exclusive. It is our vision that the Hyperion Energy Center will be an important economic engine for Union County and will be the gold standard whereby other similar facilities in the United States are measured. We are confident that the significant time spent on due diligence and planning will pay dividends for both Hyperion and The Siouxland.
Zoning Status
The Union County Board of County Commissioners held a public hearing on the Application on March 3, 2008. With a vote of 5-0, the Board adopted the ordinance on March 11th, 2008.
Holding true to our promise of letting the people of Union County, SD decide, Hyperion and our supporters gathered twice as many signatures as necessary to put the zone change up for a public vote.
On June 3rd, the voters of Union County approved the zone change, thus completing the zoning process.
