CHERRY VALLEY- Town supervisor Tom Garretson made it clear to Reunion Power that his first concern is the residents of Cherry Valley and not Reunion Power’s ability to put a wind farm on East Hill.

During Thursday night’s meeting in which the town board unanimously agreed to schedule a public hearing on a proposed wind ordinance, Garrestton said they needed a law “thats going to protect the town. That comes first.’’ He went on to say that if one developer finds they can not work within the confines of the town’s proposed wind ordinance then perhaps another developer can.
