THE Devon North wind farm issue will most likely be debated in the state's peak planning arena, the Victorian Civil and Administrative Tribunal (VCAT).

Wellington Shire Council has been notified that Synergy Wind, the company proposing to build nine turbines at Devon North, has lodged an application for VCAT to review council's decision to refuse an application for a planning permit for the wind farm.

"VCAT is an independent tribunal and will review the matter and set a hearing date in due course," said council spokesperson Mark Vittin.
