Go back to the drawing board developers the current plan is not working. We are in a climate crisis, but letвЂ™s address it responsibly. There is an abundance of negative evidence when turbines are improperly located. We are the gateway to the world famous Cabot Trail and to world renowned golfing in Inverness. Future generations deserve the same experience we enjoy today. Sometimes, we take for granted how lucky we are to live where the scenery and our humanity make for a world class tourist destination. I fear the look-off could become an industrial wind turbine interpretive centre, with hearing protection required.Д®very Cape Bretoner has felt an emotion of pride, or comfort, driving home from the mainland and seeing our beloved island in the distance (maybe there was a Matt Minglewood or a Buddy MacMaster tune playing on the radio). They speak of the natural beauty, the pristine and clean environment a peaceful oasis in a roller coaster world. I have met tourists from all over the world, who share the coastal trail with local residents. I am fortunate enough to live next to the iconic ChristyвЂ™s Look Off on Route 19. I applaud those councillors who were responsible enough to ensure regulations provide safeguards and protection for the community. Cumberland County has placed a six month moratorium on the development of all wind projects while it reviews its land use bylaws.

They do not reflect current conditions of a project of this size and magnitude.

Only foreign investment with absolutely no connection to our way of life, would entertain the current proposal.ДЄs I understand, the existing land use bylaws in Inverness County were reviewed/written in 2012. The increased cost to developers should not outweigh the hardship to generational residents. That, my friend, is where you build your industrial complex and we will welcome you with open arms. There are plenty of roads on crown land that few people will ever see.
