Falmouth residents, please contact the Falmouth Zoning Board of Appeals (ZBA) to express your support for continued operation of the Town’s two wind turbines. On Thursday 7/23/15, the ZBA will hear an appeal from a small group that wants the turbines turned off. Please take a moment right now to email the ZBA (see template below) to show your support for clean local energy, and revenue for the Town budget. Sincerely, Friends of Falmouth Wind www.facebook.com/FriendsofFalmouthWind -- EMAIL template -- To: falzba@falmouthmass.us CC: selectmen@falmouthmass.us Subject: 54-15 Public comment in support of wind turbine operation As a Falmouth resident, I urge the ZBA to reject efforts to further restrict or cease operation of the town’s wind turbines. The wind turbines provide important environmental and fiscal benefits to the entire town. Substantial (and expensive) mitigation was implemented three years ago, when the turbines were curtailed to run less than 50% of the time. Any further restriction, based on unsubstantiated claims of harm, would be unreasonable and unnecessary. I’d like to see the turbines run MORE, not less. Thank you, INSERT NAME & FALMOUTH ADDRESS HERE
