Wind Farm Strategy Group 04/08/10
Friday, 16 July 2010

Strategy Group Initial Meeting 4th August at An Talla at 7.30pm

Following the public meeting on 15th June at which the scale of the proposed wind farm off Tiree was discussed, Tiree Community Development Trust would like to thank all who attended and contributed.

The Trust would now like to ask anyone who is interested to join an informal group to discuss in more detail some of the main issues. The group will advise the Trust as it builds its negotiations with the developers and the Government. What we are looking for is a relatively large and broadly representative group that can meet for about two hours every two weeks or so to discuss a single topic each time and arrive at an agreed position on that topic. For instance, one week we might be discussing the hopes and concerns we have about impact on housing, the following meeting could discuss harbour developments, then noise/disturbance and so on.

There will be an initial meeting on 4th August at An Talla at 7.30pm for people to come along and express the support they can give, and define the detail of how the group will work. Please come along to that meeting if you feel you can contribute. If you would like to be involved but can’t get to the meeting please email Lloyd ( This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it ) with ARRAY STRATEGY GROUP as the subject.
