Part 3 of a documentary of a wind farm operating in Meyersdale, Pennsylvania. This film is useful to watch because the topography is similar to the topography in Stamford, and the turbines are close to the size that Invenergy is proposing. This wind farm was completed in 2001, and this film consists of interviews with residents who have been living with the turbines for 5 years.
In an historic vote on March 13, 2007 the Bovina Town Board banned wind turbines from this scenic Catskill town. Bovina is the first town in the Catskills to take a clear position against industrial wind development. The Bovina vote follows a twelve-month moratorium during which residents made their views known to town officials through open meetings sponsored by the board, hundreds of letters, a town survey, a petition, and a poll sponsored by industrial wind opponents.
