Manawatu Standard reports that the Palmerston North City Council agreed to wait until after a board of inquiry rules on Mighty River Power’s (MRP) proposed wind farm in Palmerston North, New Zealand. If the wind farm was turned down, the council could create a policy covering new wind farm projects. But, if it was approved, all the space would be used up, so the policy would only have to cover expansion of existing wind farms. The cost of the policy development to be between $100,000 and $150,000.
