Annual Parish Meeting
The Annual Parish Meeting is booked for Thursday 12th May 2011
8pm in the village hall. This meeting is a chance for all residents
of the parish to get together to discuss issues affecting the
village and to hear reports from the various organisations and
groups, which serve the community, about their events of the past
year.
Parish Council Elections
Rattlesden have three residents standing for Parish Council
therefore there will be an uncontested election and just enough for
a quorum. I reiterate my thanks all the outgoing members of the
council for helping me to settle into the role of parish clerk and
giving me a fast track insight into Rattlesden life and I look
forward to working with the new council, Robert Griggs, Darren
Carne and Russell Morley who take office on the 9th May. Their
first job will be to recruit additional co opted members in an
effort to fill the other four vacancies on the parish council so
please contact any of them or myself if you would be interested in
joining us or would like further information about the role of a
parish councillor.
Finances
Its that time of year again when the accounts have to be
balanced, agreed and audited. Council approved the figures for the
year ending 31st March 2011 at their recent meeting and these will
now be sent on their way through the Audit Commission’s audit
system. A notice will be posted giving information on the exercise
of elector’s rights to view the accounting documents as soon as
they return for the auditors.
