The planning application has been lodged with An Bord Pleanála but the local authority is allowed to make a submission.
Councillors at the monthly meeting demanded that their concerns be included in an add-on to the Chief Executive’s Report prompting back-room negotiations at the monthly plenary meeting.
Cllr Jim Ryan says they decided to request that the nearest windmills to the town should be scrapped.
