Please Note:

• Members of the Public are advised that because a Parish Council Meeting is an Official Council Meeting, they are only able to comment or raise questions during Public Questions, unless invited to do so.
• It is respectfully requested that items requiring clarification or further information are to be raised with the Clerk before the meeting.
• Items requiring consideration are issues requiring a decision by the council and may need to be added to future meeting agendas.
• Any requests for financial contribution from the council should be directed to the Clerk, in writing via e- mail or post, no less than 2 weeks prior to the next meeting. This is to allow circulation to Councillors so that full consideration can be given, and a decision can be reached at the meeting itself.
