CAPE VINCENT — The Town Council passed a seven-month moratorium halting all wind-power development in Cape Vincent on Tuesday night without any surprises.

The vote was 4-1, with the last remaining pro-wind councilman, Mickey W. Orvis, opposing the resolution.
Cape Vincent now has until Sept. 7 to put together a new wind law, although some believe this is meaningless as wind-farm developers may choose to work around Cape Vincent’s local wind law by submitting another application for the state to consider under Article X.
