Grafton Reps Try to Make Industrial Wind Harder

Two Republican state representatives from Grafton, Robert Hull and Stephen Darrow, have introduced a bill to make it harder to impose industrial wind energy plants on area towns.

House bill 1470 would permit the planning board of each town affected by a proposed industrial site to be represented on the Site Evaluation Committee in order to vote on the application affecting the community. The Site Evaluation Committee will determine whether the Spruce Ridge industrial wind project can be built in Orange and neighboring towns.
