Meetings

The next meeting of Foxley Parish Council will be held on Thursday 15th October 2026 starting at 7pm.

The Parish Council usually meets four times a year. Meetings are held in Foxley Village Hall, Chapel Road, Foxley, NR20 4QS and usually start at 19:00pm (please check the agenda). Extraordinary meetings will be held as necessary.

Meetings of the Parish Council are not public meetings but members of the public have a statutory right to attend meetings of the council as observers. Members of the public have no legal right to speak unless the Parish Council Chairman authorises them to do so. As part of its community engagement, Foxley Parish Council sets out a time for public participation at the start of the meeting when members of the public are invited to speak on agenda items.

If you wish a matter to be raised at the Council, please contact one of the Councillors or the Parish Clerk. Although members of the public do not have a right to force items onto the Council agenda, the Council will consider all requests. The Council agenda is prepared about a week before the next council meeting so you will need to inform the Clerk about 10 days prior to the meeting if you wish to have an item included on the agenda.  Although this might seem a long time in advance, the council is required by law to publicise its agenda at least three clear days before each meeting. Only business contained within the agenda can be considered at the meeting.

Recording of meetings

The Openness of Local Government Bodies Regulations 2014 were enacted on 5 August and came into force on 6 August 2014. These allow for the filming and recording of Council meetings (and other specified public bodies) and provide for access to records (e.g. of decisions made by officers).
