Minutes:

The Chief Officer (Governance) presented the report.   He provided background information and advised thatall Councils had been asked whether they wished to nominate candidates.  Six were nominated and each prepared a pen portrait which was sent to all Town and Community Councils.  Councils were asked to select their 1st preference candidate. The candidate with the most 1st  preference votes would be chosen. In case this produced a tie they were also asked to nominate their 2nd preference candidate, which could be used to choose between any candidates with an equal number of 1st preference votes.  Councillor Ian Papworth, Trelawnyd and Gwaenysgor Community Council, had a clear majority of both 1st and 2nd preference votes.

 

Councillor Billy Mullin moved the recommendations in the report and this was seconded by Councillor Helen Brown.

 

RESOLVED:

 

(a)       That candidates be thanked for their interest; and

 

(b)       That Councillor Ian Papworth be appointed as the Town and Community Council representative to the Standards Committee until the elections in May 2027.
