Bottle Rock Power, LLC will have to wait another month to find out if it can continue geothermal-energy activities for the next 30 years.
The Lake County Planning Commission delayed deciding on the proposed use permit time extension until Feb. 28 after determining not enough of the Cobb company's neighbors had been notified about Thursday's hearing at the Lake County Courthouse.
The commission was set to debate whether to extend Bottle Rock Power's geothermal steam field use permit until June 2043, but one man who lives on the same street said he and some neighbors thought they should have been officially informed of the meeting.
