Town of Greenfield
An Irish company wants to build 20 to 30 electricity-generating wind turbines atop a mountain near Lake Desolation in the town of Greenfield.The question is, do people in Greenfield want wind turbines in their town?
'It's hard to say no to renewable energy,' Supervisor Al Janik said. 'I think we need to move toward renewable energy, but is this the right place for it?'
Janik hopes to know more about that question following an informational meeting tonight on Airtricity's proposal for the far northwestern corner of the town. The meeting is set for 7 at the Greenfield Community Center, next door to Town Hall on Wilton-Greenfield Road.
