Annual Meeting of the Town Council – Report

At the Annual Meeting of Midsomer Norton Town Council, following a council vote with two nominated councillors (Cllr Mackay and Cllr Robertson), the current Mayor Lynda Robertson was re-elected for the third year. 

Cllr Gordon Mackay was then duly elected as the new Deputy Mayor following in the footsteps of Cllr Mike Moxham who has served as deputy mayor for the past year. 

In a busy session, the meeting was extended twice as councillors worked through the many items on the agenda which included nominations for the upcoming Civic Awards (to take place at St. John’s Church on the 19th June), new locations for the town’s speed camera and a sponsorship donation for the Community Trust. 

Residents are advised that the Town Council has decided to return to a schedule of monthly meetings by incorporating Finance and Operations into the Full Council. Minutes of the meeting will soon be available from the Council’s new website which was launched in March.
