The applicant has asked for a review of the Highland Council process in their decision to turn down their application. This is basically their appeal as due to the relative small scale (2 turbines) of the development Highland Council is the decision maker. You can read their statement here. The new reference number is 15/00059/RBREF. Whilst each application should be handled on its own merits the fear is that these could form part of a ring of turbines from Moy to Carr Ban and on to the rest of Strathnairn, enveloping Loch Ness in windfarms.
