Issue - meetings

Members are asked to agree the following proposed dates and venues for public meetings which will be held to provide information to residents about the Macclesfield Community Governance Review.

Members considered proposals for a number of public meetings for the Macclesfield Community Governance Review. These would involve a presentation followed by a question and answer session, the purpose being to provide information on the nature and purpose of the review, the community governance options for consideration, and the means by which members of the public could submit their comments. As with previous reviews, Members of the Sub-Committee present at the meetings would focus on the process involved without championing a particular option, in accordance with DCLG guidance.

Members suggested that about six meetings be held, some in the afternoon and others in the evening, but not during school holidays, at a range of locations across the unparished area, including school halls. The officers noted specific suggestions from local ward members.

RESOLVED

That the officers submit proposals for consideration at the next meeting.
