HAMMOND - While Iberdrola Renewables says a proposed law requiring wind turbine companies to compensate property owners who see drops in their land values could force the company to drop plans for a development in Hammond, Town Supervisor Ronald W. Bertram says he supports the ordinance.

"I think that's one area they've definitely made progress," Mr. Bertram said Wednesday of the "Residential Property Value Guarantee Agreement" (RPVG) proposed by wind committee member, Richard K. Champney, a real estate lawyer with offices in Alexandria Bay and Pulaski. "Personally, I believe it's vital in protecting the citizens of Hammond."
