Residents will be able to have their say on a range of issues including parking, youth projects and how to spend £40,000 on improving the town at an upcoming meeting.
ParkRight and parking enforcement will be on the agenda when the next meeting of Action: Whitchurch and Prees local joint committee is held on Wednesday, September 17.
The meeting will be held at Tilstock Village Hall starting at 7pm, and all residents in the area are invited to attend.
Those in attendance will consider bids made for funding for the area’s youth opportunity fund, and decide which projects to allocate funds to.
It will again be combined with the Tilstock PACT (Partners and Communities Together) meeting, giving people the chance to meet officers from their local policing team and have their say on how the area is policed.
There will also be a further opportunity for people to suggest how the committee could spend its budget of £40,000 over the next year, to help improve the area.
Shropshire County councillor Tom Biggins, the chairman of the committee, said: “Action: Whitchurch and Prees really is making a big difference to this area. We have discussed a number of important local issues at our meetings so far, and this will be the case once again at our September meeting when parking issues are on the agenda.
“I’m also looking forward to announcing which local groups will be awarded money from the youth opportunity fund, to help in their valuable work with the area’s young people.
“I hope as many local people as possible will be able to join us on the night.”
Action: Whitchurch and Prees has a committee of local councillors from Shropshire County Council, North Shropshire District Council, Whitchurch Town Council, Prees Parish Council and Whitchurch Rural Parish Council.
At the last meeting, held on June 11, those present discussed community transport in North Shropshire.
