Consideration of Baillie Wind Farm application deferred

Consideration of an application by Baillie Wind Farm Limited to construct and operate a wind farm at Westfield, Thurso has been deferred by The Highland Council.
 
The Council was due to consider the application at a meeting of the Caithness, Sutherland and Easter Ross Planning Applications and Review Committee in the Ross Institute, Halkirk, on Tuesday 4 December 2007 commencing with a site visit at 10.30am, followed by a hearing to be held in the Ross Institute (at 12.30pm).
 
The deferral, which has the agreement of the applicant, is to ensure that all persons who are making representations on the application to the Scottish Government will have the opportunity to engage in the Council’s hearing process, when it considers the detail of the application.

The Council will set a new date for the meeting in the immediate future.

The meeting of the Planning Applications and Review Committee on Tuesday will still go ahead at 10.30 am to consider the other business on the agenda.
