What this board is doing is a slap in the face of every property owner and voter in the township.

So slap back. When the windmills go up, tear em down.

The ONLY way this B.S. is gonna stop is to tell these bastards they can't run roughshod over the voters.

Here is a precedent from 1974. The town of Montague actually elected this guy to the select board later on. That's how bad Mass is...

The Montague Nuclear Power Plant was to consist of two 1,150-megawatt nuclear reactors to be located in Montague, Massachusetts. The project was proposed in 1973 and canceled in 1980,[1] after $29 million was spent on the project.[2]

On 22 February 1974, Washington's Birthday, organic farmer Sam Lovejoy took a crowbar to the weather-monitoring tower which had been erected at the Montague site. Lovejoy felled 349 feet of the 550-foot tower and then took himself to the local police station, where he presented a statement in which he took full responsibility for the action. Lovejoy went on trial in September 1974 on charges of malicious destruction, but was acquitted on a technicality.[2][3] Lovejoy's action galvanized local public opinion against the plant.[2][3]
