District council meeting heading to New Romney
Published: 16 September 2024
October’s full council meeting is to be held in New Romney, making it the first to be held outside Folkestone in recent years.
The next meeting is to be held at The Marsh Academy, New Romney (TN28 8BB), at 7pm on Wednesday 2 October.
Moving full council meetings from the Civic Centre to other areas of the district is part of an initiative suggested by Cllr Anita Jones when she was elected council chair in May.
Leader Cllr Jim Martin said: “Folkestone & Hythe District Council represents all parts of the district, and holding a meeting away from the Civic Centre demonstrates our commitment to the whole of our community.
“A cornerstone of democracy is that it is accessible and transparent. We look forward to seeing residents who may not be able to attend our usual scheduled meetings in Folkestone.”
Attendees will be able to meet some of the district council’s elected members at a special event due to be held at the venue from 6pm. More details will be publicised in due course.
Free parking is available and the area is served by a local bus service. The full council meeting will be broadcast live on the council’s webcast channel as usual.
You can find out more about the chair’s role by following the official Facebook and Instagram accounts.
