Hydroelectric power at Peninsular Dam? Ypsi City Desk says YES

Wow, what a GOOD idea.

The A2 News is reporting that Ypsilanti City officials are considering using the long dormant Peninsular Dam to generate clean, SELLABLE hydroelectric power.

City Council member Bill Nickels (Ward 2) is quoted as saying Ypsi could power 450 homes and raise roughly 150,000 clams a year to help offset the overall 450,000$ per year in electric outlays the city spends now.

It's only in the study stage but boy howdy, The City Desk is behind this 100%.

Mr Nickels if you'd like to use this forum to keep Ypsilanti updated, feel free...
