Tell AEP that you DO NOT want 100 foot tall towers all along Ogden Road, Colonial Avenue, Route 220 and Route 419! Tell AEP that the Roanoke Valley is worth keeping beautiful. While we want to improve the infrastructure in Roanoke, we do not want to sacrifice our natural beauty in order to do it. We want AEP to put the power lines for the Sunscape Project underground, and properly soundproof and camoflage the transfer station. We cannot allow AEP to build this project as planned so that they can save money at the expense of our community. Concerned citizens are worried about declining property values, noise, safety issues, and health issues. It is to be located adjacent to residential property. Sign this petition and let AEP know that you oppose above-ground power lines and a sub-station located in a residential area for the proposed Sunscape Project in Roanoke.

The growth in support signals to AEP that our objections to above-ground towers are significant. I have requested a formal meeting with project managers to present these concerns directly. Further updates on their response will follow once the correspondence is confirmed.

100ft towers are a total eyesore. Nobody wants to look at that junk in their backyard every day. Put them underground where they belong.

Its all about the money for them. They dont care about our health or safety. Do it right or dont do it at all.

Ridiculous that they would even consider this. My property value will tank and the noise will be awful. Think about the people living there!

I moved to Roanoke for the scenery and the view. AEP needs to quit trying to save a buck and respect the neighborhood.

Absolutely not. Route 419 is busy enough without these massive eyesores blocking everything. Bury the lines!!
