News from the Council Meeting of 26th October:

Council Meeting – 26th October
Okehampton Town Council discussed a wide range of local issues at the meeting. Councillors continued to support better rail connectivity, highlighting growing passenger numbers, overcrowding concerns and the need for improved facilities at Okehampton Interchange.

The Annual Council Meeting and Mayor Choosing event in May will begin at noon and involve local schools and businesses.

Other decisions included reviewing internal audit recommendations and to replace ‘Chairman’ with the gender-neutral term ‘Chair’ in future Council documents. In principle, a refreshed Council tie, with further quotations to be obtained alongside options for a Council scarf was agreed.

The Mayor reported on recent community engagements, including Okehampton Carnival and a charity coffee morning that raised more than £180.
