Residents in the Almarchal, Zahara de los Atunes and La Zarzuela areas, affected by the land expropriations to create space for another wind farm, were requested to attend a meeting in Tarifa Town Hall on Tuesday (17th) as a preliminary step in the process and another compulsory purchase order meeting has been scheduled for October 24th. Landowners in the areas are against the farm and are suspicious of the legality of the steps being taken by the Town Hall.
The Platform for Sustainable Development (PMA) have criticised that the Junta has “not even informed the residents of their rights, nor specified the land which is to be expropriated”. The group has also stated that the information supplied and the rulings made in favour of the wind farm by Tarifa Town Hall are “questionable”.
