Wind Farms - - Seven Turbines Large - - Run Into Even Bigger NIMBYism

Local control in Manitowoc County is used to sandbag a relatively small wind farm, and that is renewing a plan for state approvals rather than local control.

These are complicated issues, but like other zoning issues, there has to be something approaching reasonableness.

South of border, Mexico is embarking on something that would make the vetoed Manitowoc project look like a hand-held pinwheel.

Thanks to the Daily Reporter for its energetic coverage of these issues.
