Firstly I would like to
publically thank our Vice Chairman Glynn Moye for
all his hard work behind the scenes during the last few years. Unfortunately

been an extremely pro active Councillor albeit not often in the
public view.
Councillors elected
are as follows:
Marian Andrews, Sir Peter
Batho, Joseph Cassels, Graham Cooke, Rose Damiral-White, John Fisher,
Ken Howe, Diana Sculley, Donald Tricker, Cheleigh Trotter-Langlois
and Dave Willett
