Boughton Parish Council's Consultation
Frequently, Boughton Parish Council is consulted on a number of issues, particularly by County and District Councils, and needs to respond by deadlines; usually within 21 days. Before responding, BPC considers it prudent to consult Parish residents (plus any other) as much as possible to enable a more holistic concensus on a subject to be obtained. This page on the Council's web site has been designed for this purpose and all residents are requested to use it to ensure their views are communicated into BPC's response formulating process. BPC may also have subjects that it seeks views on. For information on a subject, also to obtain a means to respond, please click on a subject in the index below.
