Alle-Catt Wind Farm has signed a commitment to provide the Town of Farmersville with more than $13 million over the next two decades. The agreement was contained in a host community agreement. According to the company website:
The Alle-Catt Wind Farm will boost the local economies of
Allegany, Cattaraugus and Wyoming Counties and create jobs, all while
generating clean energy to meet New York's growing electricity needs. We are
proud to contribute to the economic growth of our host communities in western
New York while solidifying our state and national energy independence.
Invenergy is developing Alle-Catt on approximately 30,000
acres of private land it is leasing in the towns of Arcade, Centerville,
Farmersville, Freedom, Rushford and Machias. The project enjoys the support of
over 300 local tax-paying residents, crosses three county lines and will
generate a tremendous amount of energy and income for the local communities.
