About Hale Parish Council

Hale Village has had a Parish Council since 1895. The council has ten members who represent the whole parish of Hale. The council meets on the 3rd Monday of every month at 7,30 pm in the Meetings Room of Hale Village Hall. Members of the public are welcome to attend meetings and may address the council during the Public Forum, which takes place near the end of the meeting. Hale Parish Councillors are volunteers who are elected or co-opted. There has not been an election in Hale for a number of years as there have been insufficient candidates; therefore new members have been co-opted. At the Annual Parish Meeting a Chairman and Vice Chairman are elected. The Clerk of the Council is a vital team member who provides advice and administrative support and takes action to implement the council′s decisions. The clerk is the proper officer of the council by law.

The Parish Council can play a vital part in representing the interests of the community. It influences other decision makers and helps deliver services to meet local needs. The council is concerned with planning, highways, traffic, community safety, housing, street lighting, the cemetery and war memorial, litter, seats, shelters and rights of way. It can also take the lead in organising and giving financial support to local projects, groups and clubs.

Parish Council Meetings are held monthly in the Meetings Room in Hale Village Hall.

Members of the public are welcome to attend meetings and may address the council during the Public Forum, which takes place near the end of the meeting.
