Steve D Posted September 16, 2019 Share Posted September 16, 2019 May be seeing a tax break in the future "New York approves 68-turbine Steuben County wind farm" Named the Baron Winds project, the 68-turbine project will be built in the towns of Cohocton, Dansville, Fremont and Wayland. It will connect with the state’s electrical grid through New York State Electric & Gas transmission lines. The project will be built and operated by a subsidiary of the German energy company Innogy. The 492-foot-tall turbines will be spread over private agricultural and recreational land. Payment-in-lieu-taxes agreements provide local governments with payments of approximately $26 million over 20 years. Host towns will also receive payments estimated to be up to approximately $12 million over 20 years under community agreements. https://www.stargazette.com/story/news/local/2019/09/16/steuben-county-wind-installation-aprroved/2344676001/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
