I would have thought that the developer would have assessed the risk of fire from another fire in a turbine to be acceptable given that the usual spacing distance is ~350m.
And as far as the Baillie windfarm is concerned, the nearest buildings were ~300m distant and it is puzzling why the developer kept those turbines that were closest in the final application. They could have easily mitigated a lot of the concerns by reducing the number of turbines to 15 or 14.
God, grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change,
Courage to change the things I can,
And wisdom to know the difference.
