Media/Press Release - Article 78 hearing in Supreme Court, Bath, NY

Media/Press Release - Article 78 hearing in Supreme Court, Bath, NY

Judge Marianne Furfure will hear the Cohocton Wind Watch Article 78 against the Town of Cohocton, NY on Windmill Local Law #2 - Tuesday, May 8, 2007 at 10:00 AM - Supreme Court, 3 East Pulteney Square, Bath, New York 14810 (607) 776-9631.

This action contests the compliance with SEQRA on the passage of the second town law that modifies the zoning stature that allows the UPC industrial wind turbine project.

It was stipulated in court that the Town of Cohocton, in the first Article 78 action against Windmill Law Local #1, did not follow SEQRA.

CWW contends that the Town Board has passed a windmill law to specifically accommodate the UPC developer. UPC aka Canandaigua Power Partners I & II are LLC's and have proposed two projects when both are contingent and part of one large development. UPC Prattsburgh is also a project of this same two township development.

Counsel for CWW is Richard Lippes and David Miller.
