The plea to refuse the plans is thought to be due o the potential impact the project will have on the Highland Fault.
The Highland Fault is a natural feature, which famously marks the divide between the Highland and Lowlands of Scotland.
Force 9 Energy and Abercairny Estate have submitted a joint application to develop a 22.5MW wind farm at Mull Hill, just two and a half miles to the north east of Crieff.

The project would be situated on 855 hectares of moorland, with each turbine having a maximun height of 104m and generating enough electricity to power more than 11,300 homes.
The proposals have been controversial, drawing 119 letters of support and 283 of objection.
In addition to a number of community councils voicing their concerns over the plans, Scottish Natural Heritage has also objected to the initiative, claiming it would "significantly detract" from the transitional landscape created by the area’s part of the Highland Boundary Fault line.
In 2005, an application by Force 9 Energy and Abercairny Estate for a 24 turbine scheme in the area, at the mouth of the Sma’ Glen, was rejected following a public inquiry.
Members of Perth and Kinross Council's Development Management Committee are due to discuss the proposals next week.
