If you are interested in how your Parish is looked after and how it develops then why not consider becoming a Parish Councillor?

The positions are voluntary and take up as much time as you are prepared to give. The minimum commitment is at least to attend the monthly Parish Council meeting normally held on a Monday evening.

Councillors represent the views and concerns of the residents of the Parish to the Parish Council and, through it, to the Borough Council.

Tarvin Parish Council is in the process of appointing three new Councillors by co-option. We would like to appoint the new Councillors at the next Council meeting to be held on Monday 22nd June. With this in mind please note that we are making Friday 19th June 2015 at 5pm as the deadline for applications for this meeting.

To qualify you need to be aged 18 or over and have
a. been an elector in the Parish for at least 12 months and have either occupied or owned/rented premises in the Parish
b. resided within three miles of the boundary of the Parish
c. his/her principal or only place of work in the Parish.

Having said that you are not eligible if you:
a. are the subject of a bankruptcy restriction order or interim order
b. have, within five years, been convicted in the UK of any offence and have had a prison sentence (whether suspended or not) for a period of over three months without the option of a fine

If you are interested in becoming a Councillor please apply to the Clerk in writing including a little information about yourself (e-mail is acceptable).
