CORRESPONDENCE No new correspondence has been posted recently. But all items received are available for inspection at Parish Meetings (and may be borrowed by arrangement with the Parish Clerk) |
MALLERSTANG PARISH MEETING "Parish Meetings" are the lowest tier of local government in communities which, like Mallerstang, have a separate identity but are too small to have a Town or Parish Council (we have an electorate of about 87). Parish Meetings are not in any way connected with the church, which has its own system of Parochial Councils. Our Local Authority is Eden District Council, within Cumbria County Council. Mallerstang Parish Meetings are held three times a year, in Spring, Summer and Autumn. All residents of the (civil) parish are eligible to attend, and to bring up any matters of local concern or interest for discussion Our powers are limited but we can - and do - make a difference. The Officers are elected annually at the Spring meeting, (the Annual General Meeting), usually held in the last week of March. At the November Meeting the annual budget and the Precept (the amount added to Council Tax specifically for Mallerstang purposes) are decided. The Consolidated Charities Committee and other Charities reports are given at the June Meeting - and from June 2005 onwards the Parish Accounts will also be presented at this meeting. Mallerstang Consolidated Charities is a separate body. Its members are elected by the Parish Meeting for a fixed term (or co-opted by the Committee), and the Chairman of the Charities Committee reports in general terms to the Parish Meeting from time to time. But the Charities Committee is not directly answerable to the Parish Meeting, and its deliberations are confidential - particularly where individual awards are concerned. (We also have shared representation with Nateby, on the Kirkby Stephen Charities committee. Our current representative is Mrs Glenys Lumley, of Nateby Parish Meeting.) Dates of the next meetings are given below An Agenda, and the Minutes of the previous Meeting, are sent out to every household before each Meeting. Please let the Parish Clerk know if you do not receive your copy, or if the name or address are incorrect. |
