Loch Lomond Ski area worried about proposed wind turbines
The owner of Loch Lomond ski area is worried the proposed wind farm will hurt his business. Ward Bond says he's spoken with his insurance company and is worried he might not be able to get liability insurance with turbines located near his operation. Bond says the turbines could vibrate the ground jeopardizing the safety of their ski lifts. Bond adds he's not against the turbines he just wants them located in an area that is away from homes and businesses. Bond was part of many deputations on the turbines at a special council meeting Tuesday night.
