Elections come but once very 4 years they are of importance to the residents of the village.

Future Penyffordd Community Council meeting will be discussed once a month.
And the community council will have an email address so you can contact the council
in an easy manner with a record of what you said and when. ( of course they will! )

Everyone of course will be pulling in the same direction.
The tide against in the coming years a bit stronger than that of the last 5 years.
The EU in a mess.

  1. You are making promises which you may not be able to fulfil.
    Do you not realise that if you are elected you will need to attract support from the other Members whom you have attacked unfairly, you might find yourself a very lonely Member, ineffective, disliked,isolated, useless, a passenger.

  4. I have refrained thus far from entering the fray, but the time has come where as someone who has had dealings with many Councillors and Local Government Finance, that I feel I must intervene.
    I am full of admiration for Men and Women who selflessly give up their quality time to attend meetings on behalf of the Commu nity, without any remuneration whatsoever.(unlike those who get Elected to the County council on £12,500 per Annum plus expenses). So I have been taking a look at what has been achieved these past 4 years by Penyffordd Community Council, and this is what I have found:-
    2008/9 MultiUse games area £12,000

    Millstone/Melwood play area £6000

    Melwood and Dobshill play Area--£5000

    Annual Litter Collection--£5,500 per year

    Seasonal grasscutting-- £3,750 per year

    Christmas Lighting--£4000 per year

    Summer Play Scheme --£900 per year

    Street Lighting--£5000 per year

    Grants to Organisations--£3200 per year

    Grant to War Memorial Institute--£3400 per year

    Provision of extra salt bins--£1000

    This equates to a Band D property Council Tax Payer of 60p per week.One of the lowest Band d Charges in Flintshire.

    I believe this to be highly commendable, and I hope this will be helpful both to yourself and all those whoread your blog.

    I also believe it reflects great credit upon all the existing Members of the Council and I urge Electors to reelect bthose who are seeking re-elction together with some new blood in the form of Clive And Helen, then we will have the right comination of experience and drive.

    I do this in the interests of Truth.
