Hi,
A couple of clarification points:

1). This is a additional peninsula to the one featured in the Lakewood Observer. That peninsula off of Lakewood Park served a different but just as important role in Lakewood's future. The key is for our local government to get off it's backside and start the feasibility studies for their creation. The environment at the State and Federal level should be very positive to help with this now. Now is the time to grow Lakewood with peninsulas.
2). The Lakewood Windmill factory could develop windmills for on Lake Erie, but it would have a World market to construct and sell them to.
3). There is just as big of a demand for solar collectors/panels. I'm not sure of the process for making them but if the process would not harm the environment, then I don't know why we couldn't double the size of the peninsula and design it for both a Windmill factory and a solar panel factory. Both are needed in America's path to energy independence.

Wake Up Lakewood! Now is the time to take action to improve our economic situation. With talk of depression-level of involvement at the federal level to turn the economy around, those with a plan will get the help.
