New beginning

4th February 2015

York Community Energy is preparing for a relaunch. We’re holding an open planning meeting at 2pm on Sunday March 1st, downstairs at the Your Bike Shed cafe on Micklegate.

Our initial work, centred on a site in the parish of Murton, did not receive enough active support from the village to take further. So we’re going to do things the other way around – rather than finding a viable site and trying to build support, we’ll build support and see what sites emerge. We’ve already had a few suggestions but we’ll take it slowly. The community ownership model doesn’t work unless there’s significant support in the area.
