Supporting Sustainable Aberdeenshire - No to Trump

Menie Not Money

Policies - Does the development meet Aberdeenshire and National Policies?

The application departs (the technical term meaning fails to comply) with a whole raft of Policies. The list below are the ones owned up to by the Planning Department.

It seems Policies are just brushed aside as soon as there are promises of the mighty Trump dollar. Perhaps Policies, like taxes are just for the little people.

Are our counsellors going to brush these policies aside and grant the Application?
