These are unusual times and the Parish Council recognises the reluctance of parishioners to attend public meetings in the light of ‘social distancing’.  So, on Tuesday 14th July Utkinton and Cotebrook Parish Council will be holding its first ‘Zoom’ meeting at 7:30pm.

If you wish to participate, please contact our Clerk on utkintonandcotebrookclerk@gmail.com and she will send you the necessary invite and instructions on how to join and participate. Members of the Public are invited to participate in the first 15 minutes of the meeting.

The outline agenda is set out below:
