Notice of vacancy 5 December 2018

Due to the resignation of Demelza Medlen as councillor for Menheniot Parish Council, a casual vacancy now exists. If more than 10 residents wish to call for an election to fill the post, they must write to the Returning Officer at St Austell Information Service, 39 Penwinnick Road, St Austell PL25 5DR (tel 01209-614373) before 21 December 2018. If fewer than 10 requests are received, then the vacancy will be filled co-option. Download the official notice here.

Because fewer than 10 people have requested an election to replace the vacant seat caused by the resignation of Peter Sobey, residents who fulfill the conditions for co-option may now make application direct to the council itself. If you are interested in becoming a parish councillor, please make your request known to the parish clerk before 10 January 2019, and be prepared to attend for interview at the public meeting held on 17 January 2019. Download the official notice here.

If you require more information about the election process or would like to discuss the work that councillors undertake, please message the Parish Clerk.
