PRESTON PARISH COUNCIL is holding a public event for village residents to see the proposed plans for the construction of two 55 metre high wind turbines (with a maximum tip-height of 85m) on land West Of the Limes Farm, Staithes Road, Saltend, Preston (South).
The proposed site location is to the North of the Yorkshire Water Waste Water Treatment Works – which already has one operational wind turbine.
Wiltshire-based Countryside Solutions, who are making the application, say that they have considered all the likely impacts of the development on the local landscape, including noise and the effects of the shadow-flicker from the rotating blades.
However, residents will be able to make their own minds up at the event on Tuesday 7th June 2011 which starts at 7pm at the Preston Community Hall.
