Page 2 of 2 What we have to bear in mind is that Philip Major is only considering a slender wind mast and mitigates the “ conflict with the policy” by the minor nature of the development.In the case of the Wind Farm ,however, the landscape description remains but it will be difficult to establish mitigating circumstances, such as minor intrusion, when talking about third generation wind turbines or even ancilliary buildings. The Pontefract Windfarm Action Group urge the case officers involved with the determination of this Windfarm Application to seriously take on board the comments of Philip Major. Tony Hames, Chairman of P:ontefract Wind Farm Action Group commented "We endorse the fact that the area is “ a valuable recreational resource” and that the “countryside and villages are relatively unspoilt” and the fact that he states there is a conflict with policy means there is only one possible decision for this proposal, - REJECTION."
