While the Select Boardâs (SB) 10/26/20 Agenda regarding âStatus report update/discussion on wind turbinesâ had nothing to do with the Mayflower Wind (MW) application for test bore holes in the Heights and Surf Drive beach parking lots, there were some comments regarding MW during the Announcement period.

Chair Megan English-Braga mentioned that the SB had received a number of letters from residents and she wanted to assure everyone that they have been read and are being responded to. Doug Brown and Nancy Taylor met with representatives of Mayflower Wind last week to outline the Townâs and residentsâ concerns, especially the fact that MW lacked information about health and safety issues. MW will get back to the SB in the future with that information.
The SB wants to make sure that relevant information gets to the public before they make any decision regarding testing or future involvement in Falmouth. Doug Brown mentioned that residentsâ letters were not âanti-windâ, but primarily concerned with health and safety issues. Nancy Taylor noted that the SBâs decision will be based on whatâs best for Falmouth.
