Landowners opposed to the Grain Belt Clean Line, a proposed 750-mile network of high-power transmission lines that would cut through southern Randolph County, say they are frustrated by being characterized as NIMBYs — people who say “Not In My Back Yard” to new infrastructure or other developments.
