Annual Parish Meeting 2013

The Annual Parish Meeting is a meeting required by law and is called by the Chairman of the Parish Council before the end of May in each year. It is an opportunity for members of the parish to get together and discuss issues of interest and concern with a view to developing an action plan. The 2013 meeting will be held in the large committee room on the first floor of Scotter Village Hall at 7.30pm on Wednesday 10th April 2013.

Many parish-based clubs and organisations (that provide much needed services, support and opportunities for social interaction within this community) will be represented at the event, along with Lincolnshire Police. The organisations will provide a written report that outlines the progress they have made during the preceding year and their plans for the future. The reports will be available for collection on the night, and a copy of each report will be attached below, with a hard copy in Scotter library once they have been received.
