THE impacts of Storm Babet feature high on the agenda of tomorrow’s (Tuesday) meeting of Stonehaven and District Community Council.
The powerful storm winds were followed days later by raging spring tides that added to seafront chaos by dumping tons of debris left to be removed not once but twice.
While gratitude to the council’s clean up squad is clear, no doubt questions will be asked and comments made about the storm’s impact on various elements of the town’s infrastructure.
What next for Dunnottar and Carronhill
Also on the agenda is an update following the recent news of Aberdeenshire Council’s failure to receive Scottish Government funding towards the cost of replacing the two schools.
Stonehaven & District Community Council meet in the former court room of the County Building, Dunnottar Avenue tomorrow, Tuesday November 14 at 7pm. The meeting is open to the public, and can be joined online. This link along with supporting documents can also be found on the SDCC website
