MiaH sounds very much like a N.I.M.B.Y. to me.

I think the important issue here is that any development, which is funded publicly, uses public assets and has benefits or detriments to the public at large, is discussed fully and openly. I dare say the involvement of the enterprise agencies is because there is purported to be a significant benefit the local economy. If so, we want to hear about it.

It's not for the community to say what can go on at the base Buzz, we're not the experts. But I'm sure if there is to be detriment to the quality of life or existing business developments (golf courses, farmers, tourism etc) with little significant gain to local employment, as the mole suggests, then we should have something to say about that too.

The other issue would be, how would this business affect the business plans of MAM and there plans for the base. Which I dare say is being considered.

When Vestas came to town, they had a public presentation in the Vic which, at the time, smoothed their integration into this community. If there is benefit or detriment, the community has the right to be informed.
