The Batsworthy Cross planning application is out for another round of public consultation.

We believe that North Devon planners may try to push this application for approval.

BICKHAM MOOR WIND TURBINE SITE

 A site notice went up yesterday for a 60m anemometer mast at Bickham Moor (between Knowstone and Oakford). The application is for the erection of the mast for 18 months.

 THIS IS OBVIOUSLY THE PRECURSOR FOR A WIND TURBINE PLANNING APPLICATION.

 The planning application number is 06/01131/FUL

Any objections should be sent to J Guscott

Head of Planning at Mid Devon Council

Phoenix House

Phoenix Lane

Tiverton

 

You can object to the erection of this mast, but in all likelihood we must be aware this mast may go through. The local parish council could object if they see fit to. They have not done so as yet.
