Is this conference open to the public?

Absolutely it is open to the public. And you would be wise to show up.

The number one problem with local wind development efforts, and what most allowed these efforts to gain a foothold, is the sad fact of so many people not showing up.

Are you paying attention to this, people of Clayton?

Yes, this conference is open to the public. Unlike local siting such as was conducted by the Rienbeck and Richard Edsall administration, Article X is a much more fair process and is done in public and not in a developers back room.
