There has been a significant increase of dog fouling within the village. Pavement, road and private driveways.

This has been brought to the attention of the Parish Council following an incident which resulted from a dog fouling outside a resident’s property.

This is not acceptable.

Thank you to the majority of dog walkers who are considerate and respectful and clear up after their dogs, But as usual it is a small number of individuals who cause the problem.

Not having a bag with you is no excuse!

Have you thought of becoming a Councillor for our Village?

In May 2023, all County and Parish Councillors will stand down after 4 years of service and a re-election will take place.

There are 7 Councillors for Ridlington so if 7 or less apply to be Councillors then they will be automatically re-elected. If more than 7 persons apply, then there will be a Village election on May 4th 2023.

 

Ridlington Parish Council meet formally four times a year in the Village Hall. There are a few other occasions when meetings are called for other matters such as planning applications. This is not an onerous role you would be undertaking. There is a professional paid clerk who manages the Parish Council.

If you would like to know more about the role please speak to one of the current Councillors or visit the Village website: ridlingtonparishcouncil.org

Thank you,
Dave Johnson
Chairman
