Downholland Parish Council

Badge of Office of the Chairman of Downholland Parish Council

The Parish Council has seven members, elected for a four-year term. The next election is due in May 2014. The Council meets on the second Tuesday of each month (except August) at 7.30 p.m. in the Village Hall in Haskayne. There is an Annual Assembly of Electors of the Parish on the second Tuesday in April, also at the Village Hall, followed by a Parish Council meeting.

The agenda for each Parish Council meeting is posted on the Council's notice boards in Haskayne, Downholland, and Barton, by the Wednesday preceeding each meeting and also on this website (see link below). Members of the public are welcome at every meeting of the Council and there is a Public Forum at each meeting with the opportunity to ask questions of the Parish Council.

The Council owns the sports pavilion adjacent to the village hall and leases the parish field from the Church Commissioners. The council is responsible for the upkeep and maintenance of the field and lets out the field to two football teams. It is also responsible for the upkeep of the Downholland Cross and surrounding grassed area, four bus shelters and three notice boards in the parish.
