Unless otherwise stated the meetings will be held at Burton Village Hall.  There will be a public participation session at the beginning of all Council and Committee meetings, when people can speak for up to 3 minutes on any issue which falls within the Council's / Committee's  remit, with the total session lasting a maximum of 15 minutes. All meetings are open to the public, although contributions from the public are legally restricted to the Public Participation item. 


However, sometimes items need to be taken in private if the discussion involves disclosure of personal information or details of a future contract.  The decisions taken in private sessions are public knowledge and will be included in the minutes.

The agenda will normally be available about a week beforehand from the Meetings Page

Update on Special Grants

The deadline for lodging applications for small annual grants and clock grants (special grants) has now passed.  The Grants & Community Projects Committee will consider them in the first instance, with the Council taking the final decisions.  All applicants will be notified individually in January of the outcome of their application.  The cheques will be sent out to the successful applicants in April / May 2019, at the start of the Council's new financial year.
