September’s Parish Council Meeting – Cancelled
/in News /by Parish ClerkThe Parish Council’s meeting due to take place on Tuesday 13 October has been
cancelled due to being within the period of National Mourning for
Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
Section 243 of the Local Government Act 1972 states that a period of National Mourning cannot be included in the 3 clear days required for the publishing of a meeting summons. Consequently, the meeting planned for tomorrow will now take place on Tuesday 27 September 2022 at 7.30pm in the Parish Room. This will be a much smaller version of the agenda with the majority of items carried forward to the October meeting.
The Parish Council’s October meeting will take place at 7.30pm on 11/10/22 at the Church Meeting Room – all welcome to attend. A full list of planned meetings for the forthcoming year is attached below.
The Parish Room remains open each day from 09:30 until 12:30 for signing of the Book of Condolence until Tuesday 20 September (it will be closed on Monday 19 September for the State Funeral).
Thank you
