Opponents so disappointed about wind farm approval
b12-038 Villages signs: Clifton, Henlow,Langford
OPPONENTS to the Langford wind farm application have spoken about their disappointment after the plans were approved.
Councillor Tony Spencer, chairman of Langford Parish Council said: “I’m disgusted with the decision and so many people in this village will be so upset about this.
“Right from the start residents have been against the plans but obviously the inspector does not agree with our concerns.”
Councillor Tony Fisher led the campaign against the proposals after the parish council voted to support Central Bedfordshire Council in its opposition to the application.
He said: “I am extremely disappointed as I think most people in the village are.
“From the start of the campaign residents have attended all of the meetings and have supported us all the way.
“Many villagers also attended the inquiry on a daily basis but clearly the Planning Inspectorate feels differently to us.”
Mr Fisher holds hope that Central Beds Council may appeal against the decision.
He said: “There is the possibility that they will appeal but if they don’t I don’t think there is much we can do now.”
