Council meetings from 7th May 2021
Council meetings will return to the Council Offices from 7th May 2021 as the legislation which allowed local councils to hold remote meetings over the last year has expired.
All participants will need to maintain social distancing and follow Covid-secure guidelines:
- Face coverings must be worn at all times within the building
- Temperature checks will be carried out before you will be admitted to the chamber; the council reserves the right to refuse entry to any person (councillor or member of the public) who records a high temperature.
- Hand sanitiser will be available at the entrance to the council chamber
- You will be required to indicate your attendance either via the NHS Track and Trace app or manually on a sheet of paper provided
- You will need to bring your own pens/pencils/notepaper – there will be no stationary items for general use.
As and when Government guidance changes, these arrangements will be reviewed.
