While some wind development information is available to counties and municipalities, such as the “Tool Kit” on NYSERDA’s www.powernaturally.org website, many seek direct assistance and information. This assistance supports counties along with with planning, zoning, and other town boards responsible for making land use decisions.  The program  provides technical training and assistance to regional planning councils so that they may better provide wind energy information and assistance to counties, municipal boards, elected officials, industrial development agencies, code enforcement offices, and other municipal staff. This will allow regional planning councils to be more responsive to the needs of municipalities and provide them with up-to-date, reliable, and accurate information on wind development.
