TW DRAFT LOCAL PLAN CONSULTATION

Thank you to everyone who responded to the consultation and for the support received for the Parish Council's submission.

There have been a significant number of responses, from across the Borough, and the officers will be collating these to bring forward an amended Plan for further consultation.

The main areas of concern appear to be Infrastructure, Health and Secondary Education.

NEW BUS SHELTER

We would like to thank Telford & Wrekin Council for the new bus shelter recently installed at Ellerdine. This is on the site of the old bus shelter and will mean that the public transport buses no longer have to park on the Village Hall Carpark.

All Parish & Town Councils are statutory consultees in the Planning Process. The Planning Authority for our Parish is Telford & Wrekin Council.

The Planning Committee often meet to discuss planning and development matters within the parish and strategic documents.

All local councils have a duty to set a budget which will represent the aims and objectives of the council. This is called a precept and is collected on our behalf by TWC from the residents as part of their Council Tax.

An Asset Register is available as it part of the end of year audit and governance paperwork.

All Parish & Town Councils have a series of policies and procedures which govern how the Council is run, this forms part of the requirements of the Transparency Code.

At the Annual General Meeting of the Council, held annually in May, the Council agrees a schedule of meetings for the year.

All agendas and minutes are available. At the start of each full council meeting there is a public session where residents are welcome to raise any matter with the Councillors.
