Committees

The Parish Council has three committees. The Planning Committee, the Environment Committee and the Finance and General Purposes Committee.

The membership of each committee is decided at the Annual Council Meeting in May. The chairman (Cllr Cathy Fagg) and vice-chairman (Cllr Phil Jackson) of the council are ex-officio members of all committees. The Terms of Reference for each committee can be found below.

All committees have agendas published 3 clear days before any meeting, and minutes are also published on the website.
