Public Exhibition for the Proposed Knockcronal Wind Farm

Public Exhibition for the Proposed Knockcronal Wind Farm

The second Public Exhibition for the proposed Knockcronal Wind Farm will run between 14 September and 5 October 2021.  As Covid-19 restrictions have eased we are pleased to be holding two in person local drop-in sessions on Tuesday 21 September and Wednesday 22 September. 

For the second exhibition there are a number of ways that local members of the community can find out more about the development over the exhibition period:

• The online exhibition will be available for 3 weeks from 14 September to 5 October at www.knockcronal.co.uk
• We are hosting two in person drop in session events:
  • Dailly Community Hall, Dailly: 21 September 2021 2pm – 7pm
  • McCandlish Hall, Straiton:  22 September 2021 2pm – 7pm

To manage Covid-19 risks at the exhibitions we are operating an appointment system. Please book your appointment via the online exhibition which you will be able to do at www.knockcronal.co.uk  from 14 September, or by booking an appointment at 0800 772 0668

• One online chat session:  5 October 2021 12 noon – 2pm

On the exhibition website, you will find more information about the project via an online exhibition brochure.  In addition, you will also be able to see photomontages illustrating what the proposed development may look like from viewpoints agreed with South Ayrshire Council and NatureScot (formerly SNH) and a viewpoint requested by Crosshill, Straiton and Kirkmichael Community Council, in the predicted views brochure online.  Finally, you will also have the opportunity to submit questions to the project team, fill in a feedback form to let us know your views on the project or if someone would prefer to talk to a member of the project team, they can request a call back.

The exhibition sessions will be similar to Public Exhibitions held before Covid-19 Restrictions.  There will be exhibition boards with project information and the opportunity for you to ask the team questions.  In addition, there will be photomontages from a selection of local viewpoints and there will be an opportunity to view what the proposed development may look like from your home or other location of choice in the area.  To manage Covid-19 risks we are operating an appointment system, bookings can be made via our website (www.knockcronal.co.uk) or via telephone on 0800 772 0668.  We have carried out a full risk assessment for the events, as requested by South Ayrshire Council, and these have been accepted for both exhibition events.
