The Fond du Lac County Board has voted unanimously in favor of a resolution asking the state legislature to approve
funding for a study on the potential human health impacts from wind
turbines. Several people who live on an 88 turbine windfarm in the
town of Marshfield spoke at last night’s board meeting. Elizabeth Eberts says she’s happy the county board voted in favor of the
resolution. Eberts told the board the windfarm has negatively affected her health. James Vollmer told the board he was forced to move from his
home. Jim Miller says there are nights when he gets only an hour
of sleep. Republican state senator Glenn Grothman was in attendance
and says there’s no question in his mind the state needs to do
something to help. Grothman told the residents that as chairman of the Assembly
Judiciary Committee he plans to schedule a public hearing on a bill that would
allow for lawsuits against the utilities who operate the windfarms.
