PROPOSAL for a SOLAR ENERGY SCHEME in OSGODBY
Boom Developments Ltd (via the Agent Pegasus Group) have applied to Selby District Council for an Environment Impact Assessment (EIA) opinion for a solar energy scheme to determine whether the project is likely to have sufficient environmental effects e.g. visual impacts, emissions to air and transport of fuel, to warrant an EIA. The proposal consists of construction, operation, maintenance and decommissioning of a ground mounted solar farm laid out across fields at Osgodby Grange and Whitemoor Farm, Osgodby.
Local residents have received information concerning the proposal. There will be a Public consultation commencing on 30th April for 4 weeks.
