New Vote Poll coming

Audlem Online will soon by starting a new Vote Poll. Several suggestions for a new poll subject have been received but more will be welcome.

You can still vote in the current poll asking: "Do you agree with building the proposed wind farm south east of Audlem?" Nuon Renewables, it is reported, is to appeal against the rejection of its plans by North Shropshire District councillors seven weeks ago to build the wind farm. A massively attended meeting in Market Drayton on 2nd September saw the councillors override the advice of the district's planning officer and what appeared to be the view of the planning committee's chairman.

Followers of planning decisions on major issues know there is always a significant chance of councillors' decisions being overturned at appeal, sometimes because councils are reluctant, or unable, to commit as heavily to legal costs as a well-funded company. The Market Drayton meeting showed huge public opposition, backed by a majority of planning councillors, to the wind farm of seven giant turbines which, despite being in Shropshire, will be seen from many parts of Audlem. Do have your say before the Audlem Online poll ends. With an appeal coming up, this is very much a live issue.
