HAMMOND - A divided Town Council on Monday passed a resolution opposing a recently enacted state law that puts decision-making power on commercial power projects in state hands.
The board voted 3-2 to in favor of the resolution prepared by the Coalition Against Article X. Article X, also known as the Power NY Act, establishes a one-year permitting process for building power plants. Each project would be considered by a seven-member board consisting of five state department heads and two locally appointed community representatives.
