Wind Turbine Project Reviewed, Halted by Selectmen
The Board of Selectmen reviewed the multi-year history of Town efforts to develop alternative energy sources and the wind turbine project in particular at their meeting on March 30, 2010.
Board members summarized their own views of the pros and cons of the proposed turbine at the White Crest Beach site.
After acknowledging all the efforts by Town committee members, they voted 5-0 to halt the project.
Although Warrant Articles relating to the project have been published, they are likely to be withdrawn at the April 26, 2010, Town Meeting.
