Dominion Energy continues to work on its $9 billion wind turbine project that it says will bring more reliable, sustainable energy for more than 600,000 households.
In all, 176 wind turbines are being built off the coast of Virginia Beach to provide more reliable energy.
But residents of the adjacent Croatan neighborhood are unhappy with the noise and vibrations it’s causing, voicing their concerns at a Virginia Beach City Council meeting Tuesday.

“It’s a peaceful neighborhood. Since November when they started construction, it’s been a nightmare. They’re noise that wakes us up at night shaking our beds,” John Knight, a Croatan resident said.
Knight has lived in Croatan for 6 years.
