CAPE VINCENT — The town will move forward with development of a wind zoning law, and quickly.

The Town Council unanimously agreed Thursday night to hold work sessions on the draft law that came out of the town's Wind Committee.

But that decision came after a divided vote that rejected a six-month wind farm development moratorium proposed by new Supervisor Urban C. Hirschey. New Councilman Brooks J. Bragdon also supported the measure, while Councilmen Mickey W. Orvis, Donald J. Mason and Marty T. Mason voted against it.
