Strategic Planning - Lanyon Farm Solar Farm PA23/09696
Scheduled to be brought before Cornwall Council's strategic planning committee on 13 February
A proposal for a large solar farm in Cornwall has been criticised by some residents and local councils.
Speedwell Solar Farm Ltd - owned by Statkraft - has applied for planning permission for a 40MW solar farm at Lanyon Farm, north of Gwinear, near Hayle.
The applicant said the development would be operational for 40 years and had the potential to power the equivalent of 12,000 homes.
It is scheduled to be brought before Cornwall Council's strategic planning committee on 13 February.
Concerns raised by objectors include the loss of agricultural land and harm to the setting of a Grade II listed farmhouse.
Gwinear-Gwithian Parish Councillor Lionel Pascoe has also raised concerns the facility could lead to potential flooding of nearby Angarrack, and issues over road access.

Any Other Business that the Chairman Considers to be of Urgency The Local Government (Access to Information) Act 1972 prohibits the consideration of any items which have not appeared on the agenda for the meeting unless the Chairman is prepared to certify that a proposed item is ‘urgent’. An urgent item dictates that a decision must be made and, if this is the case, it must be as a result of a formal written report. If urgent, the special circumstances which make it so must be spelled out to the meeting.
