Introducing Winchester Town Forum

Winchester City Council 250 square miles 115,000 total population 45,000 in urban Winchester three small market towns, two largish settlements in the south ‘southern parishes’ - rarely visited by many Winchester town residents no animosity – but not a lot of common interests 57 councillors – 18 representing Winchester urban area; ‘the town’

Before 2002 district parished 6 town wards not parished S35 special expenses charged to Winchester town account representation of “Winchester issues” by ward members and community groups

Move for a town forum Parish council’s viewed as effective and able to represent community views concern that Winchester town missing out Motion to Council – expressing a consensus established a committee to advise recommended establishment of a ‘town forum’

Structure of Town Forum legally ‘an area committee’ oversees Town Account (c £900k) but does not have final say on precept or budget 18 Members representing town wards looks and operates just like a Council committee (bit more public participation) delegated powers are not extensive but potential to influence primarily to advise and provide a sounding board public meetings and presentations

Typical Town forum agenda items parks and play areas street cleanliness local bus services HMOs and student housing 20mph speed limits environmental improvements Local Plan (a little) and the Vision for Winchester…

The Vision for Winchester

A delicate political balance… Conservative Cabinet – Lib Dem Town Forum precept level? major projects? planning issues? a campaigning platform?

But does it work?
