Town Council Calendar of Meetings 2019 to 2020
All Council meetings to the end of the Civic Year are listed in the calendar (most start at 8pm) and you can download a document (*PDF) listing them here. The meeting agendas and minutes are also *PDF files.
*PDF documents require Adobe Reader to view them.
There is usually a time lag between meetings taking place, and the official record being posted on this site. This is because the draft record needs to be checked for accuracy, approved, and signed by the Chairman or Mayor at the next scheduled meeting of the Committee or Town Council respectively. Residents are nevertheless entitled to see draft records of meetings before they are signed off, which they can do by calling at the Civic Hall.
Standing Committees
In addition to meetings of the full Town Council, involving all 18 Councillors, there are five Standing Committees. You can find out more about each of the committees, their members and what they are responsible for by clicking on the links below.
