Decision:

Resolved

 

(1)          That, further to the delegated authority given by Executive as its meeting of 6 June 2022, Minute 11 (2),  Councillor Phil Chapman be appointed as a Cherwell District Council outside body representative on Banbury Charities to replace Councillor Colin Clarke.

 

Reasons for the decision:

At the 6 June 2022 Executive meeting, Councillors Colin Clarke and Ian Harwood were appointed as Cherwell District Council’s (CDC) outside body representatives on Banbury Charities. Councillor Clarke has taken over Chairmanship of Banbury Charities and is therefore no longer a CDC outside body representative. It is therefore necessary to appoint a second CDC representative to Banbury Charities.
