This is the first newsletter for the proposed Paling Yards Wind Farm. It is intended to inform the local community and interested stakeholders about key elements of the project, the site, and the steps in the upcoming planning process. This newsletter outlines the community engagement strategy that will be undertaken including details of an upcoming door knock in the local area. Subsequent newsletters will be distributed at key milestones of the project to keep interested community members informed and up-to-date.
