Greener Leith are holding their AGM tonight at Leith Community Centre, Kirkgate at 7.30p.m. “The main focus of the meeting, will be our plans to build a community owned wind turbine at Seafield. You may have heard that we have successfully raised more than 90% of the money we need to complete the ‘pre-application’ phase of the project.
Therefore we’d be really keen to hear your views on the proposal. The money we have borrowed from the Scottish Government is to pay for all the detailed research that we need to do:
- To determine whether a wind turbine is actually feasible and that there is a workable business case.
- And if it is feasible, to put together a detailed planning application.
If both of these steps are successful, then Greener Leith, in partnership with PEDAL Portobello, will borrow more money to build the wind turbine.
Given that a lot of the feasibility research has not be started, let alone completed yet, we may not be able to answer technical questions about the wind turbine project in massive detail at the meeting. Nevertheless, we will try to answer all questions as honestly and transparently as we can.
In particular, we’d like to know how you think we should spend any financial surplus the wind turbine may generate, if it does get the go ahead.
We are also trying to persuade people from other Scottish communities where community wind projects are already up and running, to come and speak at the meeting. However, at present our guest speakers are still to be confirmed.
After the formal business is over, it is almost certain that we shall decant to a local pub to continue the chat.”
