Ecogen Wind LLC sues Steuben County town over wind farm delays

A wind energy development company has sued a second town board in an attempt to force through a large wind farm without the approval of local elected leaders.
Ecogen Wind LLC filed a lawsuit Monday against the town of Prattsburgh, Steuben County, claiming town leaders have improperly thrown roadblocks infront of the wind farm. The company brought a similar legal action this month against the neighboring town of Italy in Yates County.
Wind developer Ecogen has filed another lawsuit against a local municipality in an attempt to erect electricity-producing wind turbines.
The lawsuit was recently filed in state Supreme Court in Rochester against the Prattsburgh Town Board and other town officials.
It is similar to legal action the company is taking against the town of Italy in Yates County, which has refused to grant Ecogen permission to build wind turbines there.
