Residents in the Framwellgate Moor Parish Council area are currently receving a consultation letter on whether or not three small areas currently not in the parish should be added to the area.

I can see no reason not to do this. The original boundaries going back many years were based on ancient boundaries including those of a stream and land ownership boundaries. By bringing these three areas into the Parish Council it will also make the Parish more sustainable and would be preferable to these areas forming part of any new Town Council.  One street is currently split across the middle with some houses in the parish and some not.

This proposal would not increase the cost of the Parish Council. It is supported by Lib Dem and independent parish councillors and by both your County Councillors.

Please vote to incorporate new areas into Framwellgate Moor Parish Council.
