I do believe that since Tessa Wildrmoth was appointed Town Clerk we now have another member added to the administration team.   As Minutes etc. have to be typed, it would not be difficult to cut and paste such items directly to the Web Site.  Or is that too sile a solution?

I see that the Town Council' website is still woefully lacking in any useful information.

Like to read agendas or minutes of meetings? No chance!

Like to read how your money is raised and spent? No chance!

Like to be able to contact your Councillor by email in the 21st Century? No chance!

If anyone from the Town Council reads this, I beg you to take a look at this Town Council website:
http://www.ryetowncouncil.gov.uk/

It has every meeting agenda, copies of minutes, and details of how every penny is raised and spent - it's not difficult to do, so please DO IT!

Just wanted to bring this FOUR YEAR OLD post up to illustrate that the Llandudno Town Council website is still lacking the most basic of information mentioned above.  &shake&
Just checked Colwyn Bay council web, slightly better than Llandudno,.... and Conwy's similar to Llandudno.
Unfortunately your example (Rye) is down today.

Conwy Council chiefs enter 'war of words' with Janet Finch-Saunders

Aberconwy AM Janet Finch-Saunders has called for cabinet member Cllr Mike Priestley and council leader Dilwyn Roberts to “consider their positions” over what she called “serial failures” and “ineptitude” at the council.
Ms Finch-Saunders said: “There is considerable concern over the way business is conducted by those leading this council. I would seriously be asking Cllr Dilwyn Roberts to consider his position, along with the responsible cabinet member, Cllr Michael Priestley.”

The AM complained about the additional costs at Porth Eirias, the debate over sea defences in Llandudno and repair work to Deganwy Promenade and the Conwy Morfa coastal path, poor corporate governance, “opaque” procurement processes and large overspends.

This is how useless politicians in the Ukraine get treated. Should this approach be introduced to the UK?

And how much more they can pay themselves for added responsibility!    ZXZ

A vote.... to start.... to talk.....,  so any REAL action is light years away then.

I'm surprised they didn't have a vote, to start to 'think' about it.

Perhaps we could have a competition to decide a new name for the merged authority?

Since the River Clwyd runs down the middle of them they could call it Clwyd County Council.

I bet all the old notepaper etc still exists in a cupboard somewhere.

I've heard that a local solicitor is intending to stand at the next general election for UKIP, his could have implications for Mr Bebb our current representative in Westminster loosing him valuable votes and letting Labour retake the seat of Aberconwy.
I'm not sure that I care but I'm sure those of a certain political colours will be up in arms if the intention becomes a real threat to the Conservatives.
