Parish Clerk
The procedure to fill this vacancy is either by election or co-option. If 10 or more electors call for an election within 14 days by writing to Somerset Council, then, if there is more than one candidate, an election (with associated costs) will happen to fill this vacancy. If this is not the case, the vacancy will be filled via the co-option process. Further information can be obtained from the Clerk at parishcouncil@northcurry.com.
We thank Tina Stodgell for her exceptional service to the community over the last 40+ years, including 13 years as Chair!
