Local residents' concerns - and possible litigation - have prompted town officials to include an industrial wind turbine ban in the zoning law they're formulating.

It had already included regulations on setback and height but now calls for an all-out ban, as well.

The Yates County Planning Board is scheduled to review the proposed zoning law. A public hearing is scheduled for 9 a.m. Sept. 9.
