Annual Parish Council Meeting – Brief DescriptionAn Annual Parish Council Meeting is a formal meeting of the parish council, usually held in May, where councillors elect the chairperson (and sometimes vice-chair) for the coming year, review governance documents, and set priorities for the council’s work.It is different from the Annual Parish Meeting, which is a gathering of local residents. The Annual Parish Council Meeting focuses on council business, such as:
Confirming committee memberships and representatives.
Reviewing policies, standing orders, and financial regulations.
Setting the schedule of meetings for the year ahead.
It is open to the public, but unlike the Annual Parish Meeting, it is run by the council and follows a set agenda. – Click here
