Updated information for 6th May Parish Council meeting

County Councillor Dupre will be attending the Parish Council meeting on 6th May between 7.00-7.15pm to listen to concerns about fires at the Grunty Fen Landfill site. Therefore, the Parish Council agenda for the evening has been reversed, with the Ordinary Parish Council meeting being held first as the item relating to Grunty Fen Landfill Site is on that agenda. The Annual Parish Council meeting, which deals with procedural items, will be held later in the evening after the Ordinary Meeting.

So if you are specifically interested in any item on the Ordinary Meeting agenda, please make sure to come along at 7pm to St Andrews Hall.

The revised agenda is available here
