The Community Governance Review is now reaching the end of Stage 2, which involves Cornwall Council agreeing a set of Draft Recommendations for public consultation.  The Parish Council would like to thank all the residents who turned out to support the Parish at the Public Engagement meeting at St John’s Hall on Monday 16^th September. We were probably the smallest parish there but had the best support! 

Following this series of meetings, the Review Panel met on 14^th October to consider their Draft Recommendations as follows: ‘The panel is recommended to make no change in relation to Towednack’s status as a parish.  The panel is recommended to agree to Nancledra community being united within Towednack Parish as both Ludgvan and Towednack parishes agree that the community of Nancledra should be united.’ 

These recommendations will be part of the draft proposals that will be put to a full meeting of Cornwall Council on 10^th December, for consideration during Stage 3 of the process, namely a three-month consultation period, which will start on 11^th December.  We are not sure yet exactly what form this consultation will take but it will definitely be on the December Parish Council agenda, and more information will be available here as soon as we know it.
