In January the Parish Council advertised two vacancies for Parish Councillors following the resignations of Mya Watkins and Jackie Britten-Crooks. Thankfully, the village did not request an election, which meant the two vacancies were open for co-option (see picture of notice).
David Woods was co-opted on the 28th April filling one position, and another resident is available for co-option at the next Parish Council Meeting (in fact the same resident was available for the 28th April meeting). Under normal circumstances this would mean a full council, unfortunately Sam Mitchell (Chairman) has just resigned meaning a further vacancy has just become available, subject to an election request or otherwise.
The agenda should be reordered on the 12th May, so that the co-option takes place as Item 1.
NB: It’s a shame both positions were not co-opted on the 28th April.
