THESE ARE NOT LIKE OUT WEST WHERE MILES OF BARREN LAND IS RESERVED FOR THOUSANDS OF TURBINES. UPSTATE NY WILL HAVE THEM SPRINKLED THROUGHOUT OUR AREA - AS LITTLE AS 500 FEET FROM NEIGHBORING PROPERTIES. UNLESS YOU GET INVOLVED NOW AND DEMAND :
"NO - WE WANT COMMUNITY INVOLVEMENT / OWNERSHIP AND INPUT ON LOCATION, SITING, NOISE ALLOWANCE, SET-BACKS, HEIGHT, NUMBER , FUTURE REMOVAL BINDERS AND PAYMENT IN LIEU OF TAXES FOR PRIVATE DEVELOPERS!"
WE WANT INPUT TO REDUCE RISK TO TOURISM, RESIDENTIAL AND RECREATIONAL DEVELOPMENT, BIRDS/WILDLIFE AND PROPERTY VALUES IN THE FINGER LAKES REGION.
SAY " NO!! TO WINDFARMS IN HIGH IMPACT AREAS"!
SAY " NO! TO GOV. PATAKI'S DESIRE TO USE EMINENT DOMAIN FOR WINDFARM DEVELOPMENT!"
SAY "NO TO NYSEG ALLOWING PRIVATE WIND DEVELOPERS TO USE OUR PROPERTY EASEMENTS WITHOUT PAYMENT AND PERMISSION". LET YOUR TOWN, COUNTY AND STATE GOVERNMENT KNOW - YOU MEAN NO!
NO SLIPPING THESE INDUSTRIAL BEHEMOTHS IN BEHIND OUR BACKS!
WE ARE NO LONGER PRIMARILY AGRICULTURAL LAND, WE ARE NOW PRIMARILY RESIDENTIAL AND RECREATIONAL. THE TAX BASE COMES FROM US! DEMAND INPUT ON THE PLANNING , COST AND REWARDS OF THESE INDUSTRIAL PROJECTS. ** RESIDENTS MATTER JUST AS MUCH AS BIRDS AND WILDLIFE. DON'T LET THEM KILL OFF OUR RIGHTS ALONG WITH OUR VIEWS, PROPERTY VALUES, QUALITY OF LIFE AND TAX REVENUES. WHILE YOUR AT IT - REDUCE YOUR USE OF ELECTRICITY AND OTHER ENERGY SOURCES BY BEING MORE CONSCIOUS. IF WE DON'T WANT TO HURT OUR ENVIRONMENT IN ORDER TO SAVE IT - PARTICIPATION IN CONSERVING ENERGY IS EVERYONE'S OBLIGATION. TELL LEGISLATURES TO FORCE THE INDUSTRIAL USE OF PASSIVE SOLAR LIGHTING FOR MALLS AND PARKING LOTS AND OTHER LESS DESTRUCTIVE MEANS TO CONSUME LESS ELECTRICITY RATHER THAN MAKE US LOOSE OUR DIGNITY TO LIGHT UP ANOTHER SHOPPING MALL.
WE NEED TO CONSUME LESS - OR LIVE WITH THE CONSEQUENCES.
