Alternative Energy Committee meets tonight on wind turbines

The Alternative Energy Committee will meet tonight at 7PM in room 301 of the Town Hall.
The Alternative Energy Committee will discuss and vote on options for the height of the proposed wind turbines, either 80 or 100 meters at the hub.
The plans and studies needed to prepare a Special Permit for submission to the Technical Resource Group (TRG) are moving apace and should be ready soon. The wind turbine bylaw requires the permit to be submitted ...
... to the TRG for approval before being presented to the Select Board for their approval. The bylaw makes the Select Board the Special Permit Granting Authority for wind turbines.
I have posted about the proposed wind turbines to be erected on town lands in the Paskamansett valley here, here and here.
You can find more comprehensive information about the turbines at the town website here
And here is the rest.
