The Development Control Manager introduced the Mona offshore windfarm nationally significant infrastructure project report (previously circulated), seeking members’ approval to submit a formal consultation response to the pre-application consultation on behalf of the Council. Officers guided members to Appendix 1 within the report, identifying all concerns raised throughout the pre-consultation period. The officer reassured members that there would be many opportunities to raise concerns throughout the whole process with the application; however, they were happy to receive any comments or additions members had to include within the pre-application consultation response. General Debate – Councillor James Elson raised concerns with the project, especially regarding the cumulative nature of the proposals in Cefn Meiriadog. He accepted the need for renewable energy; however, he suggested a holistic approach be taken to minimise the impact on the rural community. Councillor Elson suggested the possibility of an offshore substation to bring all projects together, then one line into the land, which would preferably be at a brownfield site. Councillor Merfyn Parry suggested a health impact report be produced to ascertain the short-term and long-term impacts of exposure to EMF and the possible links with childhood leukaemia; Councillor Chris Evans seconded these concerns. Councillor Peter Scott echoed the concerns that Councillor Elson had raised; the cumulative impact was the main issue, which would significantly impact a small area. The Development Control Manager thanked members for the comments with regards to the project pre-consultation, and summarised what would be included within the response as comments from Planning Committee– · emphasise the need for a holistic approach; · long-term health impacts to be raised and; · longer-term impact of EMF issues, impacts on St Asaph (vehicle routes etc.). Councillor James Elson proposed approval to submit the comments set out in APPENDIX 1 as the Council’s formal consultation response to the developer’s statutory pre-application consultation on the proposed Mona offshore windfarm with the addition of the comments from Planning Committee set out above seconded by Councillor Peter Scott. VOTE – For – 17 Against – 0 Abstain – 0 RESOLVED that the pre consultation response be APPROVED in addition to the comments made by the Planning committee. The Development Control Manager informed the committee once the changes were made, local members would have sight of the response before any response was sent. The meeting concluded at 11:00am
Councillors must say when they have a personal link to something being discussed, such as a job, a property or a family member. A prejudicial interest is one strong enough that the councillor usually leaves the room and takes no part.
