Well, excccuuuusssee us.

Newburyport's planning board gets a smack down from Cohassett Planning Board Chairman Alfred Moore. Apparently, that closer-to-perfection town is considering the installation of two wind turbines. This Wind Watch site ran an article from the Patriot Ledger .

Lori Langenhagen, who lives about a half-mile from the proposed site, brought up two problems – noise and flickering lights – that a turbine in Newburyport has been blamed for.
“This is not Newburyport,” Moore said. “This is Cohasset.”
Planning board Vice Chairman Stuart Ivimey said the Cohasset board has done much more research than was done in Newburyport.
There, he said, “they didn’t do much of any due diligence.”


So there you go.

I hate it when people richer than us are right.

Planning Board? Don't forget the council passed the rules -- and is now considering changing them.
