A message to the voters in District 3E about wind turbines

I’ve been asked by residents living on Route 359 to further clarify my position on wind turbines in their neighbourhood. 

Many of you know that the current council recently protected our neighbourhoods by indefinitely suspending the use of wind turbines in Kings County.  This over-ruled a previous decision to allow wind turbines. 

I support the council’s current position.  I believe our time would be better used now to consider and put in place other strategies for reducing our need for fossil fuels.  A green energy plan for Kings County is well overdue and something we can start working on together. 

We can identify ways to not only green our homes and communities but also create ongoing local employment on a smaller, sustainable, and manageable scale.  If you have your own thoughts about what you would include in a green energy plan – please send them along.
