Tackley Parish Council

 

Tackley Parish Council is the first tier of your local government.  It delivers a vast range of services at a community level.

 

At present there is a three- tiered structure of local government:

 

Tackley Parish Council

 

West Oxfordshire District Council

 

Oxfordshire County Council

 

The Parish council is involved in planning, housing, promoting tourism, licensing, maintaining the playing field, maintaining Crecy Hill Nature Reserve, maintaining Tackley Heath, reporting Highways issues, grass cutting of public areas in Tackley, allotments and lots more.

 

The Parish Council is a statutory body.  The Council is principally funded by an annual precept.  The years budget is set at the budget meeting in December every year and the precept is decided on.  The Precept is added to the council tax, collected by the county or district council and paid to the parish in two six monthly instalments.  The Parish Council can apply for other funding such as grants and funding awards, but there is no funding directly from Central Government.

 

Tackley Parish Council consists of seven elected councillors and a parish clerk.  

 

The present council was elected in May 2008 and they will serve a four year term.

 

Your Parish Councillors are:

 

Councillor June Collier – Chairman

Councillor Paul Joslin – Vice Chairman

Councillor Richard Banbury

Councillor Robert Clow

Councillor Bill Denver

Councillor Robin Gibbons

Councillor Jim Howard

 

Your Parish Clerk is Linda Jones

 

To enable us to give you the best service, please direct enquiries via email to the Clerk at or by phone 01869 331729 or in person at a Tuesday Evening surgery.

 

Tuesday Evening Surgery

 

The Parish Council runs an evening surgery in the committee room of the Tackley Village hall most Tuesday evenings between 6.30pm and 7.00pm. If there isn’t a surgery then there will be a notice on the Village hall door.   If any resident of Tackley has a query then they are very welcome to attend these surgeries.  The Clerk and several of the councillors are usually in attendance and your query will be answered as quickly as possible.
