Dear Friends/Neighbours,

Westfield Lane Wind Farm - PUBLIC INQUIRY

You may be aware that the decision of Wakefield Planning Committee to refuse permission for the above wind farm has been appealed by the developer.  There will now be a Public Inquiry.  The final decision will be made by the Secretary of State.

We believe that to finally defeat this industrialisation of ‘Went Edge' we require the best possible representation.

We are engaging a specialist team, including a barrister.  This team have represented both local authorities and resident's groups and have had considerable success in this sphere.  However, the cost of such service is not cheap.

We are appealing to everyone for financial support in this ultimate stage of our struggle.  As the final legal costs are unknown, we are looking to raise a substantial fund.  In the event we do not use the full amount we will return money to donors on a pro rata basis i.e if we raise a large fund and only use 50% then we will return half of each original donation.

We are grateful for all your help in the past but please give this appeal serious consideration - any contribution would be an investment to protect your quality of life, the character of the area where you have chosen to live and the value of your property.

W.M.D.C. agree with us, as does our M.P. that this site is totally inappropriate.  Let's give ourselves every chance of defeating this application for good.

Yours faithfully,

Tony Hames, Chair, P.W.A.G.
