The Winds of Change on Wind Farms
Tomorrow I have a meeting with the company who seek to develop the old Tranwell Airfield site, something which is strongly objected to by the local community. I have asked the developers to come and meet with me in the Commons. I am grateful to the lead objectors, Karen and Penny, for giving me the questions they would like to see answered. Amongst other things I will also be raising with them the new planning guidance, the impact on the local community, the visual blight and the problems such windfarms cause the radar of the RAF / airports.
