The company which had been looking into the possible creation of a wind farm in the Goomburra district, east of Allora, has abandoned further action on the matter.
Wind Prospect Pty Ltd’s Regional Development Manager, Michael Sale, told The Clifton Courier this week of the decision.
“We’re not going to investigate it any further,” he said.
Mr Sale said the decision was a direct result of the strong community reaction at a well attended public meeting in Allora last month.
He said the company did not have any plans for a wind farm development in the vicinity of Allora.
Mr Sale said Wind Prospect had conducted preliminary enquiries with landowners in the Allora area as part of a scoping phase.
The public meeting at the Allora Sports Club on the 14th of March had attracted close to 300 people and the issue was later raised in State Parliament by Member for Southern Downs James Lister.
