This was to fill vacancies caused by too few candidates putting their name forward for the recent parish council elections and the resignation of Caroline Mott. Four candidates put their names forward and of the three co-opted onto the council, all are new faces. They are Jo Pritchard, Julie Lewis Thompson and Terry Pritchard. Congratulations to all of them! The other serving councillors are Robert Bickle, John Leonard, Bill Thirtle and Alison Young. Other news: Subsequent to the meeting one of the three co-options was deemed by WDBC to have not followed the casual vacancy procedure and therefore will be run again. (See notice below). Dates of next parish council meeting: Thursday 11th July 2019 at 7.30 pm in Bridestowe Methodist Church. Agendas and minutes for Bridestowe Parish Council meetings are displayed in the bus shelters and noticeboards in the parish, or on the Bridestowe web site at www.bridestowe.org.uk Contact details for Bridestowe Parish Council: Pete Daniels (Parish Clerk), 4 Trescote Way, Bridestowe.
