Parish Councillor Vacancy
15th April 2024
Have you every considered becoming a parish councillor? Appleton with Eaton Parish Council has a vacancy per the notice: Casual Vacancy Notice.
What do Parish Councils do?
Parish Councils make all kinds of decisions and make representations to other local and national bodies, on issues that affect the local community: from managing play areas, liaising with the Police and other services and campaigning for and delivering better services and facilities, to commenting on planning applications and representing the Parish in meetings with assorted external bodies, working with the County Council on traffic matters and engaging with other local Parish Councils on matters that affect us all.
There are limited powers to make decisions, but Parish Councils do have the ability to negotiate with, and the power to influence, those other organisations that do make the final decisions.
If you are interested in learning more, we’d love to hear from you!
