General Information
Community
Councils should aim to represent all people in the area without prejudice:
they are non-party political and non-secretarian. They must call for
nominations publicly and hold contested elections. Any person over
18 years of age in the Community Council area, can be nominated to join
their local Community Council. Community
Councils are regularly consulted by the local authority and public bodies
on a wide range of issues which affect their area, such as planning,
environment and health. All Community
Council meetings are open to the public. They receive a basic annual
grant from their local authority towards running costs.
