Mendlesham Parish Council is an elected tier of local
government. The parish covers the villages of Mendlesham and
Mendlesham Green and surrounding hamlets/properties.
Eleven Councillors are elected every four years to represent the
community, improve quality of life and the local environment. A
Chair and Vice Chair are elected from the Councillors on an annual
basis. A Clerk is employed by the council as an advisor,
administrator and responsible finance officer.
The Council is funded from the “precept” which is the money
collected from local tax payers via the Council tax bill issued by
Mid Suffolk District Council and monies received from its own
activities/ rental income from property owned.
