PUBLIC MEETING atSHORESDEAN VILLAGE HALL7.00 PM WEDNESDAY 10 NOVEMBER
Although nothing much appears to be happening, numbers of concerned individuals have been talking, writing letters to the press and their political representatives and researching information on how we can oppose such a hugely inappropriate development on such an unsuitable site.Hopefully, when we have formed an action group on 10 November, and gained an insight into what skills and interests our supporters have, we will be able to focus and co-ordinate these efforts to much greater effect.
I don't know what happened at this meeting but it was called by a local group protesting at a very sizeable Wind Farm Project by Your Energy Ltd just across the border in England south of the Berwick Cornhill road. The opponents claim to be concerned not at wind turbines but at the scale proposed. 300 Foot monsters about 100 foot higher than those at Soutra in southern Scotland Also up to 25 are envisaged the biggest other project in north east England consisting of 4.
What is this to do with the Merse. Apparently they will be visible from Paxton-not from Hutton according to Dave the expaper. HTT are relaxed and point out that they might be a deterent to low flying aircraft
