Notice of Second Vacancy in Office of Councillor

Notice of second vacancy on Burlescombe Parish Council

Following the resignation of Nick Eaves, there are now two vacancies on Burlescombe Parish Council. An image of the additional Notice of Vacancy is below and it will be published on the Mid Devon District Council website and in parish noticeboards soon.

Ahead of the process to fill the vacancies, we would encourage anyone interested in serving the community to find out more about what’s involved in being a parish councillor.

You can visit the National Association of Local Councils website https://tinyurl.com/4vrucs99 to read about the role, and you can view a video here https://youtu.be/_RrvU5V0GY8 for a little insight from viral sensation Jackie Weaver. You can also speak to any of our Councillors to understand more about what’s involved.

This is a good time to join the Council, as a training session is being planned soon, so new councillors will be able to get up to speed quickly.

We’ll share more about the process and timescale to fill the vacancies soon.
