yes Katie, we know you don't want it near your thriving business, but tough luck for you. I'm curious, how is a community that can't afford to pay for it's own school system considered a "knowledge economy?"
Sara, don't get me wrong. I'm all for Biomass, just not in the center of downtown Berlin and not from Laidlaw. The mill would be operating just a few blocks from my offices and all the downtown shops. It's the equivalent of putting an oil refinery in the middle of Gstaad Switzerland. When you have a jewel of a place that screams tourism and knowledge economy, why would you want to ruin it with a biomass plant, when there are perfectly good sites for it a few miles away? I also don't want Laidlaw as a neighbor. A recent due diligence report on Laidlaw couldn't find a single person to speak in favor of them in Elicotville, NY which is the other town they're trying to put a biomass plant in.
