By Geoff Fisher A reminder that the consultation for the Pettywell Solar Farm finishes on Wednesday 3 July. Details and the form for submitting your comments can be found HERE.
We understand that the planning application for the solar farm will be submitted around Friday 5 July.
The proposed solar farm would be sited on 70 hectares of best and most versatile agricultural land, and be bounded by Marriott’s Way, Nowhere Lane, the B1145 and Whitwell Road. It would include a two-acre battery farm (technology yet to be decided).
It seems that a large proportion of Reepham residents are not aware of the proposed plan, and given that it covers an area larger than Reepham, it is important that the details are communicated as widely as possible so that everyone has an opportunity to comment.
Please therefore pass this information on to your neighbours and friends as soon as possible.
Jacqui Wash, Whitwell Street
