Donegal County Council hopes to put proposed Variations to the County Development Plan in respect of a Wind Energy Policy Framework out to public consultation by May.
The council had already proposed that turbines not be allowed in areas visible from Glenveagh National Park, and this week, Cllr Marie Therese Gallagher proposed a number other.
Meanwhile, Cllr Gary Doherty said in light of the Meenbog mudslide, turbines should be banned from all areas susceptible to such slides.
Planners are now preparing revised maps, with the intention of having them approved in next month.
Cllr Gallagher believes that’s the proper way to proceed………
