Warnham Parish Council has eleven elected members who serve for
a four year term. The last election was on 1 May 2003. The next
election will be in May 2007. Anyone resident or working in the
parish may stand; younger persons are particularly welcome to stand.
The Council generally has 8 meetings a
year, although extra-ordinary meetings are called as necessary.
Council meetings are open to members of the public who are welcome
to raise matters of concern or ask questions. The first 15 minutes
of each meeting is allotted for this purpose. The meetings start at
7.30 pm and are held at the Parish Room in Church Street (next to
the Church).
PUBLIC
INFORMATION
The
Parish Council receives information from time to time which might be
of wider public interest (eg changes to refuse/recycling collections
because of bad weather, vehicle break-ins, and other information
from the police). Members of the public who would like to receive
such information are invited to let the Parish Clerk have their
e-mail addresses so that they can be included on his circulation
list. The Parish Clerk can be contacted at
