Two of the 37 wind turbines for the Hardscrabble wind farm project now stand over the hills within the town limits.
Fairfield Town Supervisor Richard Souza said people have been “impressed” with the turbines as they are being built.
“There were 25 to 30 cars with people watching on Barto Hill,” he said, after the first turbine was erected about two weeks ago.
With a three-day music festival coming to town this weekend, residents have again expressed concerns with the traffic associated with the nearby venue.
Richard Becker, of Robinson Road, said tractor-trailers have been going up and down his road in preparation for the moe.down festival being held at Gelston Castle Estate from Sept. 3 to 5.
The estate has been hosting major concerts on its grounds over the past couple of years, with a wave of cars and traffic hitting the area along with each event.
