Hammond Nears Wind Ordinance Decision

WEDNESDAY, MAY 18, 2011
HAMMOND - A final version of the town's wind ordinance may be coming in as little as a month.
The Town Council on Monday discussed health and safety setbacks proposed by the wind advisory committee. Town Supervisor Ronald W. Bertram and councilmen Dr. James R. Tague and spent the evening attempting to find a happy medium between the existing setbacks established on the original wind law and those proposed by the most recent wind committee.
Two setback standards, including how close wind turbines should be allowed to Hammond Central School and the distance they should be set back from the St. Lawrence River, dominated the evening's conversation.
