Cononley Parish Council Meetings

Cononley Parish Council meets on the second Tuesday of most months at 7.00 p.m. in Cononley Village Institute.
There can be some exceptions [especially January, June, July & August].

Correspondence for inclusion on the agenda should be sent by post or e-mail to the Clerk to the Council at least 8 days before the meeting.

Public Participation in meetings. The public have a right to speak at parish council meetings on matters directly affecting the parish. A maximum of 15 minutes is allowed for this and therefore individual contributions should not exceed 3 minutes. Precedence will be given to those who have written to the Council or who otherwise have given notice before the meeting.

Decision making. Please note that [in most cases] for action to actually be taken on an issue it will require that a parish councillor proposes that the matter is placed on a future agenda for a decision.

Information about the Council. A new publication scheme has been adopted and implemented as from 1st Jan. 2009. To accompany this scheme the Council has also agreed the publication of ‘a statement of pro-actively published information’ which lists available information, how to obtain it and whether or not any charge will be made. Enquiries should be made to the Clerk.
