Next Parish Meeting:  Wednesday 9th September 2020 at 7pm (via Zoom)

(the August meeting has been cancelled - should you have any issues you wish to raise with members please contact the Clerk)

 

The Electoral Review consultation continues until 7th September, it is a review of the wards within a local authority used to elect local government councillors.  NFDC currently has 34 wards and this is to be cut to 25 – our current Forest NW ward is one of the wards to be changed – it is proposed that Godshill and Hyde will join Fordingbridge and share a District Councillor, whilst EH&I will join Ringwood.  The Parish Council are concerned that our more rural concerns will be competing with those of a growing town with different problems and priorities – we would like to propose an alternative NW rural ward. The Council would appreciate your support with our proposal.
