LOWVILLE — Maple Ridge Wind Farm municipalities have received an $8.94 million payment from the wind farm, one year after getting only about one-quarter of the requested initial payment.
"This is really good news," said Kenneth J. McAuliffe, district superintendent at Lowville Academy and Central School, the biggest beneficiary from the 15-year payment-in-lieu-of-taxes agreement with the wind farm. "It definitely means a lot to the district's good financial health."
