Greenmyres - What Next?

A short survey to help Huntly Development Trust develop Greenmyres

Huntly Development Trust (HDT) acquired Greenmyres in March 2014 to:

1. Develop a community wind turbine to generate green electricity and a significant long-term revenue stream to support HDT and our investment in community projects;

2. Create a vibrant, multi-functional community asset offering a range of social, economic and environmental benefits.

Since then, in line with community consultations, we have invested the wind turbine income in a range of projects, including Number 30 in Huntly town centre, the Huntly Travel Hub and improvements at Greenmyres itself.

Looking forward, we would like to invest further to make Greenmyres a biodiverse, high-quality, family-friendly adventure venue for all in our community and for visitors to the area. As well as being fun and healthy, this will create opportunities for wildlife, skills development and jobs.

To help guide our plans please answer the questions below. Your views will also help us prepare a wider survey on potential community leasing/acquisition of the area of Gartly Moor Forest closest to Greenmyres to accommodate further ideas.

Thank you in advance for your input.
