Full Council

All 14 members sit on the Full Council, which meets at the end of every cycle of meetings to consider recommendations from the committees. There are certain roles which must be carried out by the Full Council, including approving the annual budget, setting the precept, and acceptance of members' declarations of acceptance of office.

The Mayor, Cllr Philip Evans, is the chairman of the Full Council for the 2025-26 council year, with Cllr Michaela Ellis the deputy mayor and vice-chairman.
