Well, My 2 cents. Aren't we THE GREEN MOUNTAIN STATE? Isn't tourism our largest draw? How about the foliage season? What am I missing. Does it make sense to put these things on the ridges of our largest draw? It does say on our license plates the green mountain state, not the wind turbine state..... Don

I couldn't agree more. Ethanol and Wind farms amount to subsidized govt. waste. I heard they want to put wind farms off Nine Mile Point on Lake Ontario... imagine that!. Trolling around wind farms for salmon. It does get worse!
When we drive thru Ellenburg, NY and we see all those wind farms from a distance and driving thru up close along route 11 it's a disgrace. In the early 60's Vermont was the only state to ban billboards to this day. Now they want to let wind farms dot the ridges. Sad. (: It's a different world.

Couldn't agree more Ron; AOT just dragged Clark's Truck Center to hearings regarding their electronic sign being a billboard; citing the "reduction of natural beauty" clause regarding signs and billboards. I can't help but notice the glaring double standard regarding a business sign and a 400' windturbine.

I can't help but notice the glaring double standard regarding a business sign and a 400' windturbine. I feel bad for the Clark family and the sign that's been there for a long time. I just like the outdoor temp. readout display. It's like the Al's frenchfry sign only in Jericho. I can't believe they want to force them to take it down. I grew up 3 miles from that location.

On the Clark sign, I believe they reached agreement. Ok to stay and only be used for town events, etc. No more personal messages. ]
So I heard...
