Kilmington Parish Council has decided to resume holding monthly Council Meetings in person but with the venue changed to Kilmington Village Hall and the meetings held on a  different evening.  We had to change the day as we wished to change the venue to the Village Hall as the Hall is larger and will be a more Covid 19 safe venue for the meetings. 

The following button link explains the reasons for the changes, the dates of the Council Meetings for the remaining months of this year and for 2022 and the Covid safe conditions of entry which apply to everyone attending the meeting.
The first meeting will be on Monday 25th October at 7.30pm in Kilmington Village Hall.

The meetings are open for the public and press to attend. There is an open session at the beginning of the meetings. This is a 15 minute session where any member of the public may speak for up to three minutes.
​
It provides an opportunity for members of the public (who are not usually permitted to speak during the council meeting, other than by special invitation of the Chair to participate before the meeting by asking questions, highlighting matters of concern or making representations regarding Kilmington Parish. No decisions can be taken on matters raised during this part of the meeting unless the subject is already an item on the published agenda. 
Neighbourhood Plan
​
In order to have greater influence on planning and future development in the village, the parish council have formed a steering group to include local volunteers to design a village Neighbourhood Plan. More details of the nature of such a plan can be found here.

We aim to give the village full consultation on forming this plan and welcome any ideas or concerns you may have regarding the future development of Kilmington.

Our email address is kilmingtonneighbourhoodplan@gmail.com and we will update this page as our work continues.

Parish Pathways

There are several Public Rights of Way in the parish. These are managed by the Public Rights of Way section of Devon County Council in partnership with the Parish Council. The Parish Council welcomes any local residents who walk particular paths regularly and who would volunteer to make them aware of any works which need to be done such as cutting back nettles or brambles or repairing stiles.
Planning Committee

All Councillors are members of the Planning Committee. Where possible, Planning Applications are dealt with at the regular meetings. If this is not possible a special planning meeting is called. The Parish Council is a statutory consultee for the main planning authority, in this case East Devon District Council. Residents wishing to comment on planning applications should ensure that their comments are sent directly to the District Council with a copy going to the Parish Council.
