Please Join Our Council!

We now have two vacancies on the Parish Council, so we are looking for two new members to join us.

Compton Parish Council consists of 9 voluntary councillors (when we have a full council).  The council meets once a month to discuss and act on issues that are important to the local community.

The Parish Council sets a proportion of local taxes to be spent in the Parish, comments on planning applications in the Parish and runs projects that help maintain, improve or enhance the local area.  Local Government is changing and Parish Councils are seeing an increase in the responsibilities and opportunities to influence decisions made that affect our local community.

Becoming a councillor is a rewarding experience as you will be able to make a change in your community to help improve residents’ lives.
