Oh Dear !
The Agenda for the November meeting reveals an item as follows
Wind Turbine public meeting.
a/ Request for £500 to facilitate public meeting use of publicity material, poster, banners and hire of village hall
b/ Approval for Cllr Cluff to prepare a presentation on the impact of the Turbine Proposal on Burton Joyce and its residents
Why is the BJPC seeking to spend money - £500 ( our taxes), on organising a public meeting ( publicity, posters, banners ) and seeking the approval for Cllr Cluff to prepare a presentation on the impact- Where is the justification for selecting Cllr Cluff - should this responsibility be that of the Planning Committee Chair?
It certain appears that the BJPC has already adopted the Anti Wind Turbine posture as exemplified with the present content of propaganda featured within their website.. ..
Surely our Councillors are elected ( or co-opted as is the case of Cllr Cluff) to represent the majority view of the community and provide a balanced arguments "for and against" .
Is there a suggestion here that the BJPC does not consider the community equipped to consider these matters independently presented?
