JUST OUTSIDE OF ONEONTA NY.
THIS IS THE TRAILER FOR WINDFALL.

MEREDITH RESIDENTS WERE SUCCESSFUL IN STOPPING THE PROJECT, PARTS OF THIS TRAILER SHOWS INTERVIEWS FILMED IN NYS TOWNS THAT WERE
NOT ABLE TO STOP THEIR PROJECTS.
DONATIONS ARE NEEDED AND GREATLY APPRECIATED. PLEASE CLICK THE ABOVE BUTTON FOR INFORMATION ABOUT HOW TO DONATE
NEXT TOWN BOARD MEETING WILL BE AUGUST 14TH
AT 7PM
At the Guilford town garage, Marble Rd.
HOW BIG ARE THE PROPOSED TURBINES ?
AS IT IS WRITTEN INTO THE NYS CONSTITUTION
THE LOCAL LEGISLATORS (TOWN BOARD) ARE OBLIGATED TO PROTECT OUR
HEALTH, SAFETY AND WELFARE
THE GRAPHIC ABOVE SHOWS -TO SCALE- THE SETBACK DISTANCE CURRENTLY SUGGESTED BY THE TOWN BOARD
TWO TIMES THE TURBINE HEIGHT FROM A RESIDENCE ( OR 1500')
ONE AND A QUARTER TIMES THE TURBINE HEIGHT FROM A NON HOST PROPERTY LINE
THIS COULD BE A FORCED REALITY FOR GUILFORD RESIDENTS IF THE TOWN BOARD DOESN'T CHANGE THESE UNSAFE SETBACK DISTANCES
TALK TO THE TOWN BOARD - TELL THEM THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE
NYS IS A HOME RULE STATE:
This means that the local level (the Guilford Town Board) has more authority than the county level or state level

People who are against the high bridge project are not against
wind power or renewable energy.
What we are against is 650’-675' turbines being built too close to homes and people’s property lines.
Our top concern is for the health and wellbeing of the PEOPLE!
That’s All people within and around the proposed project, especially those who own and live on non-host properties.
