BESS Meeting Recap
Thanks to all who attended our BESS meeting Tuesday evening to hear some informative presentations and participate in a lively Q & A. The conversation continued the next day in similarly spirited fashion at our monthly coffee meet-up, this month at Black Sheep Bagels.
Key Takeaways:

– The Town BESS Task Force is carefully looking at the BESS issue and how best to make it work appropriately in our town should the Board decide to move ahead. Click here https://southoldtownny.gov/
