Key facts

  • George Meechan has been Independent Leader of Angus Council since 2025, chairing the cabinet and setting council policy.
  • UK councils handle council tax, social housing, planning and licensing, adult and children's social care, waste and recycling collection, local roads, and (outside London) local schools. Reserved matters — benefits, immigration, tax, and the NHS's national policy — go to central government or your MP instead.
  • Identify yourself as a resident: full name, home address, and postcode, so staff can confirm you live in the council's area. For a ward-specific issue, your own ward councillor (found via the council's website) will usually get a faster reply than the Leader.
  • Post to a council leader is not free — a normal Royal Mail stamp applies.
  • PostPal prints your letter and posts it via Royal Mail the next business day for £4 — no printer, envelope, or stamp needed.

How to send your letter

  1. 1

    Check it’s a council matter

    Angus Council can act on local files: council tax, housing, planning and licensing, social care, waste and recycling, and local roads. Benefits, immigration, and national tax go to central government; write to your MP for those instead.

Common questions

What is George Meechan's mailing address?

Councillor George Meechan, Leader of the Council, Angus House, Orchardbank Business Park, Forfar, DD8 1AN.

Should I write to the council Leader or my local councillor?

For a council-wide policy question, write to Meechan as Leader. For something specific to your street or estate (a pothole, a planning application next door, a bin collection issue), your own ward councillor is usually faster — find them via Angus Council's website and post to the same civic address, marked for their attention.

Do I need a stamp to write to Meechan?

Yes — post to a council leader takes normal postage; there's no free-post rule for UK local government. If you'd rather skip the stamp and printer entirely, PostPal prints and posts your letter for £4 flat.

Do I have to live in Angus's area to write to Meechan?

No, but casework is normally only taken up for residents. If you live outside the council's boundary, your own local council is the right first contact — or write to Meechan specifically about a policy that affects you as a visitor, worker, or business owner locally.

Will George Meechan actually read my letter?

Constituent post is logged by council office staff, and issues tied to an upcoming cabinet decision get flagged directly. Include your return address — PostPal prints yours automatically — so a reply has somewhere to go.
