WHADDON PARISH COUNCIL

Updated Tuesday 23 May 2023

The Parish Council meets monthly in the Village Hall, with the normal exception of August and December, on the second Monday. Dates of meetings are listed here, and are also posted on the village notice boards. Parish Notice Boards are situated by the telephone box in Meldreth Road, by the post box in Bridge Street and at the main notice board situated alongside the Recreation Ground and Village Hall.

Minutes of meetings will be posted on the notice boards, and are also available on this page.

Parish Precept for 2023-2024 to be held at last year's level

The Parish Precept is the amount of Council Tax money that the PC needs to effectively 'run' the village. This includes maintenance, grass cutting and small improvements. This year, the Parish Council decided, at our January meeting, that the amount of precept paid by each dwelling will be held at the same rate as last year, typically at £79.88 for a band D rated house.

This is largely because we had to budget £1,500 for possible Parish Council elections in 2022 but only six people put their name forward for the seven councillor vacancies. As a result, there was no election and all six were automatically elected. The election money in last year's precept was then able to be rolled forward into this year's budget, enabling us to hold this year's precept at the same rate as last year, despite the pressures bought about by inflation. Sadly I do not expect we shall be able to hold the precept at his rate next year though.

Lee Ginger
Chair, Whaddon Parish Council

  • Since 2009, planning applications have not been considered at regular Council meetings, but are handled by the Planning Committee. Meetings are scheduled in the Village Hall as and when planning applications are received to ensure that their comments are made to the Planners within the appropriate deadlines; they usually take place on a Monday evening and are public meetings. Dates and agendas are available on this web site and on the village notice boards; minutes are no longer posted on the notice board but are kept on this web site.
