CWW letter to the Cohocton Planning Board, September 18, 2006

September 18, 2006

Cohocton Planning Board
15 South Main Street
Cohocton New York 14826

Dear Mr. Fox and Planning Board Members:

As of this date no written reply has been received regarding the offer made in the CWW letter of September 7, 2006 to assist in the research and development of a property assurance protection plan. Since this recommendation was voted on and approved by the Cohocton Planning Board, it is important that you stand by that vote.

The fact that your board also approved the recommendation to the Cohocton Town Board for a setback of one and half times the height of industrial wind turbines from all public roads is especially important to be maintained. Any effort to reduce even this inadequate setback would demonstrate that the Cohocton Planning Board retains no independence from the dictates of the Cohocton Town Board.

If the Cohocton Town Board chooses to disregard your recommendations, force them to vote against them.

Therefore, Cohocton Wind Watch expressly endorses that the only changes to your previous recommendations be of a greater protective nature and that the Cohocton Planning Board should stand firm on the harmful pressure that is being imposed by the Cohocton Town Board.

Cordially,

Cohocton Wind Watch
