The results of the advisory panel election are now available.
Congratulations to the first members of the panel who will have the important role of judging the community benefit of applications in coming years.
Elected members:
Geoff Hodgson
Peter Hardacre
Roger Paynter
Jane Sloan
Bryan Coode
Thanks also to those candidates who put themselves forward but were not elected on this occasion. Compared to many elections this one looks pretty close with all candidates receiving a good number of votes.
The advisory panel will be made up of five elected members, one parish councillor nominated by the parish council, and the county councillor. It will meet when needed to decide how to prioritise funds from the Garlenick Wind Turbines community benefit fund. This amounts to £15,000 per year. Also, in the first year there is an additional £50,000 available. These funds will bring significant community investments.
