Welton, Melton & Wauldby Parish Council
Council Information

General Information
The Council is a statutory body and elections for members are held every four years. The last election was in 2007.

The chairman, vice-chairman and honorary treasurer are appointed by councillors each year in May. At that time members are also appointed to the Council’s subcommittees and as council representatives on other bodies. The Council employs a Clerk to the Council, on a part-time basis, who is the sole financial and administrative officer.

The monthly Parish Council meetings are open to members of the public who, although not able to participate in proceedings may, at the discretion of the Chairman, be invited to address the Council on matters of particular individual interest which appear on the agenda for the meeting.

Parishioners who wish to bring a matter of concern to the notice of the Council should, contact the Clerk, or any member of the Council. It is helpful if a telephone call or informal chat is followed up with a letter, however brief it may be.

Council Meetings
These normally take place on the last Tuesday of each month at 7 pm in the Welton Memorial Hall. Dates may be adjusted to take account of Bank Holidays, and sometimes circumstances require additional meetings.

The Annual Parish Meeting is normally held on the last Tuesday in March immediately before the monthly Council Meeting. Parishioners can participate fully in this meeting

Notices with dates of meetings are displayed on the Council’s notice boards outside the Memorial Hall in Welton and in Reynolds Close in Melton.

Summaries of the proceedings of the Parish Council are included in the Welton, Melton & Wauldby News issued every two months.

Minutes of Council Meetings are posted in the Archives when approved

Council meetings are usually attended by an East Riding Councillor from the area.
