BACKGROUND INFORMATION

A planning application for one wind turbine was submitted to Uttlesford District Council, reference number UTT/0232/09/FUL, details of which can be found at www.uttlesford.gov.uk

Alongside this an application for seven wind turbines was submitted to South Cambridgeshire District Council, reference number S/0232/09/F, details of which can be found at www.scambs.gov.uk

UDC has turned down the application relating to the single turbine in the Uttlesford district.

Following non-determination of the planning application submitted to SCDC an appeal has been made to the Secretary of State and will be decided by way of a public inquiry.
The public inquiry will also consider the refusal by UDC.
 

BLIMP PHOTOS
The Stop Linton Wind Farm Action Group (SLWF) flew a blimp at 125m in order to give residents an idea of the height of the proposed turbines. Photographs of the blimp were taken from various locations and these can be viewed at their website:

SLWF have launched an appeal in order to fund their defence at the Public Inquiry in February.
