Yardley Gobion Parish Council
Pocket Park
The Parish Council is made up of 11 elected or co-opted villagers. The Parish Clerk is a part-time paid employee, but the Councillors are unpaid, and provide their time voluntarily. The Council manages public facilities on behalf of the village, such as street-lighting, grass-mowing, alloments, play areas, public seats and footpaths, and it monitors car-parking and dog-fouling.
The duties are defined by law, and funded by a precept on the District Council, which is reviewed annually. The Council meets in the Village Hall at 8.00pm on the first Tuesday of every Month. The Agenda and Minutes of these meetings are posted on the notice boards around the village and we shall make them available here on this website.
Notice Boards can be found :-
