To the Editor:

I agree with the sentiment expressed in “Ugly Monsters” (1/25) that the attitude people take toward wind turbine (WT) development off LBI is usually driven by their particular economic interests.

Businesses that cater to the Island’s tourist trade are focused on next season’s income and worry about driving away business. Owners of vacation homes are concerned about the resale value of their houses in the near future.
