SSEN East Coast 400kV Phase 2 & Hurlie Sub-station
At the Community Council meeting (29th May 2023) members agreed that, rather than duplicating effort we would encourage people to support the Save our Mearns Group which is already up and running.
In addition, MCC will continue to work with other Community Councils to represent the views of our Communities to SSEN, elected local and national politicians and relevant industry bodies. For the sake of clarity MCC opposes this deveopment.
Further to the above project the Community Council have submitted a formal objection to the development of a sub-station at Hurlie, Fetteresso ( APP/2024/1951). Members of the community are urged to also submit individual objections if they think it appropriate.
