On little more than six hours’ notice, CCSAGE supporters filled the public gallery at Shire Hall in support of Councillor Quaiff’s initiative to have PEC declared NOT a willing host to wind turbines.Please read the full article at CCSAGE:
When I arrived at 6:10 for the 7:00 meeting, the gallery was almost full, and I had to wedge myself in the back left corner. When Councillor Quaiff entered the Council Chamber, well in advance of the start time, he was greeted with a sustained round of applause.
As more people arrived, they were directed to an adjacent meeting room, hall and even down the stairs.
...
Robert Quaiff introduced three agenda items on wind turbines, the first two relating to support for the Wainfleet initiative (many municipalities have banded together). All three motions passed easily.
The third was the most important – .. “that the Ministry of the Environment be now advised that the County of Prince Edward is not a “willing host” for IWT’s..”. When this motion passed by a vote of 11 to 5, there was another sustained round of applause – in fact, Council got a standing ovation.
