Melvin Grosvenor/Dr.John Yelland/ Professor Mariana Alves-Pereira

Over the past ten years  Melvin has assisted concerned local communities and their Councils worried about the potential impacts of wind energy applications, from single turbines to major wind farm projects. He has also worked in the UK and Eire with communities suffering the adverse health effects due to inappropriate proximity of wind turbines to residents' homes. He has appeared as a lay advocate at many Planning Inspectorate Hearings and Public Inquiries, and at Council determination meetings, with an excellent success record. Melvin has considerable experience and knowledge in the assessment of visual impacts, from both domestic and landscape viewpoints, and an excellent overview of planning guidance and procedures. He is a member of the UK Independent Noise Working Group, and often works with Dr. John Yelland.
