Old Basing and Lychpit Parish Council |
Introduction | Parish Council Contacts | Council Finances | Other Old Basing Representatives |
Old Basing Parish Council was created by Act of Parliament in 1894. Its first meeting was held in December that year. Its name changed to Old Basing and Lychpit Parish Council in April 2006.
Council meetings are held on the first Monday in the month (exceptions being bank holiday weeks when they are usually held on the Tuesday) in the Pavilion, Recreation Ground, starting at 7.30pm. There is a public session at 7.45pm to allow comments and questions from the public. Please note that due to Health and Safety Regulations, a maximum of 30 people (including Councillors) are permitted in the committee room at one time.
The agenda for these meetings is posted on the parish noticeboards (at Belle Vue shops and Recreation Ground in Old Basing and by Lychpit Hall) a week beforehand.
The statutory Annual Parish Meeting is held in April or May.
