Celebrations as council unanimously rejects wind farm plans
18 February-
Plans to build five wind turbines at Saline have been rejected by Fife Council
Campaigners against a wind farm at Saline have been celebrating a major victory after the South West Fife area committee unanimously voted to reject the scheme in a meeting at Inverkeithing Civic Centre.
The decision to reject the plan was greeted with applause by campaigners, led by the group Saline Community Against These Turbines (SCATT), who have been fighting against the proposal, with support from MP Willie Rennie, local community councils and Prime Minister Gordon Brown, as well as 282 individual objections to the plan.
The proposed scheme would have seen five turbines built at Saline, two kilometers away from 200 houses.
