In particular we are concerned that, beyond providing the contact number 0300 304 8000 which the new Somerset West and Taunton Council (formerly known as West Somerset District Council) have provided; we are unable to help those who arrive with queries for them.
Staff at Minehead Town Council want to welcome and help as many people as possible, it is frustrating and upsetting for both Staff and visitors when problems cannot be solved because they are outside the Town Council’s remit.
Minehead Town Council can advise:
- Minehead Town Council can help with matters relating to: The cemetery, allotments, amenity/play ground areas around the town (E.g King George V Playing Field, Irnham Road recreation ground), public conveniences at Summerland Road (Car Park), Irnham Road, Warren Road, Quay West and Blenheim Gardens as well as grass cutting the verges in most areas.
- That the Somerset West and Taunton Council (formerly known as West Somerset District Council) have a representative at the library on a Friday morning 9 am – 12.30 pm : 1.30 -4.30 pm otherwise they are available at their main offices in Killick Way, Williton, TA4 4QA. www.somersetwestandtaunton.gov.uk
Minehead Town Council are unable to provide advice on Somerset West and Taunton Council matters such as:
- Housing
- Council tax
- Waste collection/bins
We regret that this is not what most visitors to our offices who have Somerset West and Taunton Council (formerly known as West Somerset District Council) related issues are hoping for but we hope this posting on our website will help some residents to understand the remit of the Town Council
If in doubt do please ring our office on 01643 707213 and we will do our best to help.
Kind regards
