EnergieKontor Loose Appeal hearing

April 2010

Final Curtain

 
Our email address has now expired, which is a good time for us to retire to peacetime quarters. We’ve learned a lot over recent years and if necessary, we’ll put that experience to good use. For now, FoCL is signing off. Huge thanks to everyone; best wishes and goodbye.

There will be no wind farm at Brightenber Hill in the immediate future.
 
On 8th March 2010, the Planning Inspector dismissed the appeal, mainly because the wind farm would have blighted the lives of nearby residents. This was one of our main arguments and we are delighted the planning system has come down on the side of those who would have suffered most.
 
EnergieKontor say they are reviewing their options but we believe those options are limited.
 

Big, big thanks to all our supporters.
