How To Object
If you wish to object to this Wind Turbine Application, please encourage all neighbours, friends and family to write into the Council with their valid objections.
Each family member can send an objection letter to the Council, including children.
Do not send just one letter on behalf of the household!
The number of objection letters received by the Council will (hopefully) make a difference.
Inform everyone. The Council are only obliged to notify the residents immediately effected.
Do NOT assume that your neighbours will be aware of the Application.
Here Are A Few Guidelines To Help You In Being Successful With Your Objection
Please remember that you will be MUCH more successful if:
* You do not turn your objection into a rant
* Your objection does not become personal
* Please do NOT send in a petition to the Council-
as this will only count as ONE objection.
* The Planning Officer has guidelines that he or she must follow.
The Planning Officer cannot consider or take into account the following objections:
Loss of view
Loss of property value
