Wind on agenda

8:10am Saturday 22nd July 2006 in News By News reporter

THE possibility of wind turbines going up in fields around Donyatt was raised at the village parish council meeting on Monday.

The News revealed last week that a Government initiative may see turbines built on Somerset County Council land.

Donyatt is home to several county farms, and parish council clerk Heather Bryant said: "If this did go ahead it would be a very long process with full consultation in October, 2007.

"I think it will bring a mixed bag of views."

A meeting on the issue is set to take place with the county council executive on July 27.
