Clare County Council has refused planning permission for a second wind energy development in West Clare in two weeks. Plans for a wind turbine of 150 metres in height in the townlands of Slievenalicka, Illaunbaun, Drumbaun and Lackamore have been rejected by the local authority. It comes after the Swiss-owned Illaunbaun Wind Farm Limited failed to get approval for a project which would've seen five 492-foot turbines in Tooreen, Slievenalicka, Illaunbaun, Lackamore and Drumbaun constructed. Over 200 objections were made to each development, and Laura McMahon of the 'Miltown Locals Say No to Windfarm' group she was opposed to the projects for very personal reasons.
