Clarke Creek Wind Farm is committed to building and maintaining relationships with the local community. The project team aims to keep an open dialogue with the local residents, stakeholders and the wider community to ensure successful exchange of information, consultation and engagement.
Clarke Creek Wind Farm aims to be an active member of the local community by supporting local initiatives and events.
A community fund of $200,000 each year, with $50,000 dedicated to scholarships, will run for the life of the project.
Applications will be evaluated by the Community Consultative Committee (CCC), or a sub-committee, who will determine how best to distribute the funds.
