Citizens respond to wind company's statements

CLAYTON — Environmentally Concerned Citizens Organization took issue with some of the statements a wind development company made last week about the town wind committee's recommendations.

The committee talked about its recommendations at a workshop with Town Council and Planning Board members May 27. Iberdrola representatives responded to the recommendations in a letter dated May 20 and at the meeting, saying the committee's recommendations would virtually eliminate the proposed Horse Creek Wind Farm.

In a letter to Town Council members dated May 29, ECCO's attorney, Gary A. Abraham, argued against a letter from Iberdrola to the town dated May 20.

"Specifically, ECCO seeks by these comments to avoid town board action that might rubber stamp the most vacuous statements paraded before you by Iberdrola as findings of fact," Mr. Abraham wrote.
