Sir: So Mr. Wesley declared a conflict of interest in Wind Turbine decisions. Though his conflict is through his employer, the bigger question should be what is the conflict of interest that members of C-K council may have when it comes to wind projects in C-K?
We know that the municipality has invested in the North Kent Wind 1 project. That in itself puts the entire council in a position of conflict.
Are there other areas of conflict? Are there incentives given by Samsung or Pattern? Are other council members on board of directors or other companies connected to wind farm money? How is council connected to wind money through family farms? Shouldn’t the C-K integrity commissioner have looked into these questions first before the decision to invest in NKW was made?
