Residents at Odds Over Wind Turbines

Wind turbines are not graceful, majestic, inspiring. While they may have a place where people/livestock/LIVELIHOODS are not impacted, it is most certainly not in populated areas. I dare anyone who thinks they would be a great thing to live around to call a real estate agent and buy one of the many properties that are for sale in Cohocton where these INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS have been forced upon those whose neighbors see only dollar signs. The beautiful hills are destroyed, the roads are a mess in Cohocton. Additionally, the infrastructure needed to get these damn things to earn their keep is invasive to say the least. Green energy, my a**. Green as in MONEY. Our town in southern Ontario County has a very tough law that yes, would allow turbines in certain areas of the town. The guidelines ensure that no one will have a turbine planted 500 feet from their home, as some folks in Cohocton must deal with.
