Barbara Stafford Jones, the president and CEO of the county chamber, said Friday the organization had originally not taken a position on wind power but was swayed by information provided by county officials. Stafford cited projections that a wind farm could reduce the tourism business by 15%, which she said could mean significant job losses in a county with an economy dependent on summer visitors. "We just came out of COVID, where we lost 20%. We rebounded. We can't take another loss," she said.
