The FUTURE of the UNION MILL, Cranbrook

Union Mill is one of eight windmills owned by KCC.

To save money on maintenance, KCC propose to divest themselves of the Mills
and a non-binding public consultation was held about the proposal.

An independent report showed that nearly 90% of the 2000+ responses opposed the proposal.

However, the KCC ‘Environment and Transport’ committee still voted that:
KCC should seek to divest itself of the windmills it currently owns by a method
that ensures that the windmills have a sustainable future in which they are
appropriately cared for and maintained as community assets.

KCC have not yet brought forward any suggestions as to how this worthy commitment
might be achieved but we and the other windmill groups will examine them very carefully.
