WEDNESDAY, JULY 20, 2011
HAMMOND - Support for the revised Hammond wind law was overwhelming as the majority of speakers and written comments at Tuesday's public hearing praised the efforts of the town council and wind committee, but it was a letter not read aloud causing the biggest stir at the hearing's conclusion.

"I'm curious why he read every other letter and not mine," said Michele W. McQueer, a member of the most recent wind committee and lease holder with Iberdrola Renewables, a wind company interested in a Hammond project. "I have a land-based protest petition containing 197 signatures, representing nearly 15,000 acres of Hammond property."
