    I can't believe they're doing this to us. The Board approved 700' tall, yes SEVEN HUNDRED FEET tall windfarm on the BLM/Open Space, including a private ranch behind my house. Shame on them! All the e- goes to Colo, the builder is in TX.

    If I wanted to live near noisy skyscrapers I would live in downtown Denver. They'll be shut down over 1/2 the year anyway, they can only handle certain speeds so they lock them down here during high winds. I'm almost sick about this.

    You exaggerate...it says "almost 600 ft tall" ;)
    So who's "getting paid" from this deal? :whistle:

    Nope, the article is wrong, 675' tall. Like one hundred feet shorter would make it any better :headbang:

    Funny how this works. We are dealing with something very similar that other states have squashed in the NE and hopefully this fall it gets squashed permanently here.
