I am sure you are correct there Margaret someone has done their sums. It is estimated that each turbine will produce 7.2millon kW per year x by 12 the number of turbines and we have an estimated 86.4 million kW per year generated payments estimated at:-
1. A generation tariff = 0.49p per kW (for producing green energy)
2. An export tariff (what they put back in to the grid) in this case it is the whole lot = 0.47p per kW
That is a lot of money for the investors est. £83 million per year, life span of turbines = 20 years work that one out for yourself but it is a lot of money and who is paying............not hm.gov, not the banks...............but you and I in increased gas and electric charges to pay for this "green" energy :thumbsup:
 
Yes, I know.......it really puts my blood pressure up.
Especially as these monstrosities are so ineffectual in producing the amount of energy that is needed......and they blight the landscape too(though I know some people think they look beautiful).
We have been sold a 'lemon' with these hideous things.......and in years to come we will realise this.

The reasons made me laugh. HBC need to start enforcing some of those parking and road use strategies in other areas. How about the businesses on Harvey Street Ossy blocking the road or the obvious one of Blackburn Road shops with cars parking on the footpath?

Has the penny not dropped wi yeh yet? Blackburn Rd has been a No-Go area fer donkeys years regards police or HBC taking any action.:rolleyes::mad:
 
Don't know whether this consultation is of any interest. Know there are objections recently about the smell, so not sure if it relates or anything.

Single storey "rear" extension ha ha, what about the detached single storey extension to the side of the house, the new entrance walls, the lack of off road car parking..................are they going to be allowed to "get away" with it.Think I may need to get my camera out !!

Well that was in July 2011, I passed the house today Wednesday 10th April 2013, we still have the detached singlt storey building, but it's now attached via a 2 storey "side" extension up to roof level and fitted out with windows.
The project is nothing like the planning application drawings. Whoever the Architect or Surveyor is he / she must know what is being built, may be there are 2 sets of plans, 1 for hyndburn council and 1 for the builder. Come on hyndburn planning enforcement section, sort it out. All I can say is that I am glad I do not live next door. :confused:
 
Get yer' trainers out:

Work seems to have stopped, for the time being, may be that is their plan, leave it for months in the hope that no one will bother. I am sure we have a member of the planning committee posting on Accy Web, get the Planning Enforcement Officer on the job, make him earn his keep, and sort this one out before its finished, make them pull it down and start again

That is a laugh (retrospective), the brickwork on the kitchen extension is up to roof level. I would put a stop on the whole project and make them take it all down including the detached single storey building, and the entrance walls, nothing like the drawings that were approved. Some people think they can do as they please :eek: It is a question of how strong Hyndburn's development control and enforcement section are.
If the property owners are not made to pull it down then, I see no need for a planning department at all, let people build what they want where they want

The photo shows what is there, the extension is larger than the existing house the planning history makes interesting reading :D

These applications make interesting reading, they are all for "small scale" wind turbines, the farms are in the shadows of our new visitor attraction on ossy moor, an attraction that can be viewed from pendle hill.
11/12/0179 lower westall lot farm - decided - refused
11/12/0383 higher bold venture farm - decided - refused
11/12/0433 brewer lot farm - current.
The MOD have objected to all three applications - the reason being that all the proposed wind turbine installations would be 36.6km, 32.322km, & 33km away from "line of sight" from the ATC Radar at Warton.
There is no MOD comments on the visitor attraction (wind farm) application, is it possible they forgot or have they not objected.......:confused: because I am sure they must be very near "line of sight" to the Warton ATC Radar if the small scale farm ones are, or is that one OK because it will be making big bucks for someone

I have only just seen this thread - I would not expect an ATC radar to pick up anything at ground level at a range of anywhere near 30km unless there was a significant difference in heights - the obstruction being the highest - reasonable to assume that Wharton ATC is more or less at sea level, but no idea about Ossie Moor + height of the turbines.
I do have some experience in the installation and operation of ATC radars - Plessey Watchman and NG ASR-12. Permanent returns can be blanked out from any radar display e.g. Moving Target Indicator. I suspect that the wind farm had a lot more clout that the farmers and more expensive legal advice - or dare I suggest something a little unethical:rolleyes:
 
Believe Planning Application gone in for Al-Hamza (number 11/16/0367) can make Springhill very very busy with more noise, fireworks etc

Put this on a different thread, apologies for that.

Makes interesting reading, check the Design & Access Statement item 5.2
Indicates what could happen if they don't get planning permission

Have a look at the car parking area on drawing 15019-11 designed by
The Intelligent Design Centre.........how will that work Cars boxed in that would be fun :rolleyes:
 
Have a look at it now, and whilst you are there look at No 20 it's a carbon copy, now a pair of very big houses
