St Nicholas with Bonvilston Community Council

Enabling residents to participate in shaping our communities and proactively enhancing our distinctive rural communities for the benefit of the health and well-being of residents and future generations.

Welcome

Community Councils are the first tier of governance and are the first point of contact for anyone concerned with a community issue. We are a democratically elected local authority, representing the concerns of local residents and providing services to meet local needs. We have a wide range of powers and we can be involved with planning, the provision of community facilities, allotments, etc. We raise money through a precept on Council Tax.

We are overhauling our online presence.  Please contact us for any information not currently available online.

Community Council Charter

We adopted a Charter in December, 2019 and have published the Charter on this website.  We encourage residents to read it as it sets out what residents can expect from us, and how we work for the community.
