Cassington Parish Council

Cassington Parish Council comprises five councillors. Elections for these positions take place every four years and were held in May 2006. The council meets once a month in the Village Hall, usually on the first Thursday of each month. The agenda is displayed a few days prior to the meeting on notice boards (outside the school and on Bell Lane). The agenda on display gives the date of the next month’s meeting. Members of the public are warmly invited to attend council meetings. Meetings start at 7.30 p.m. There are opportunities for members of the public to speak and ask questions.

The council’s business includes ensuring maintenance of village greens, ditches and roads. It also has the opportunity to respond to official consultations e.g. on new policies of the District Council (West Oxfordshire), County Council and the Government. It is also consulted over planning applications and alcohol licensing. It keeps in touch with the police and calls an annual parish meeting when all local groups are encouraged to report on their activities.
