Your Parish Council
Introduction
Bishopstone Parish Council is made up of seven councillors, elected from the village community, and a Parish Clerk. See "Contact Details" for telephone numbers and the Clerk's e-mail address.
Parish Council meetings are held on the second Thursday of every other month in Bishopstone Village Hall starting at 7.30pm. Residents of the village are encouraged to come along and have their say on local matters that effect them. Details of forthcoming meetings are set out under "Dates of Meetings".
Parish Councils have a wide range of powers, although most of these are discretionary in that the Council may do rather than must do. The law demands that Wiltshire Council must consult Parish Councils on certain matters affecting the parish. More details of what the Parish Council does, and how it operates are set out under "How it Works".
Also included on this web site are "Latest News" items - which will include the agenda for forthcoming meetings and details of any other current matters concerning the council - and "Minutes of Meetings" - the full minutes of meetings from January 2010. Anyone who wants to consult the minutes of earlier meetings should contact the Clerk.
