Planned to be one of the largest projects of its type in the world, it will use the same parabolic trough technology with m olten salt storage as the Albiasa Plant previously announced. Along with the plant proposed for White Hills, this is the 4th project to plan relocation to Mohave County! Although there is some concern about water useage for these projects, I am seriously hoping for some give & take on the part of local residents considering the need … (0 comments)

Mohave County makes Fox News this morning. It seems that environmentalists are opposing President Obama's renewable energy goals. One of the projects mentioned is the solar energy plant scheduled to be built outside of Kingman. Those concerned are opposing water usage, and particularly the effect on the Sonoran Desert Tortoise.

I know it is hard to take that leap into homeownership when the economy is in turmoil and all you hear is gloom and doom about the marketplace. The news bombards us everyday with real estate statistics, most of them sound negative. They say 7% of homes are in foreclosure, but forget to say 92% are not. All real estate is local.

Because of our elevation, we are … (0 comments)
