Your Councillors

Minehead Town Councillors

The Council has sixteen members, representing five Wards: Minehead (Alcombe North Ward), Minehead (Alcombe South Ward), Minehead Central Ward, Minehead North Ward and Minehead (Periton & Woodcombe Ward) . The boundaries of these Wards are decided by population to give fairly even representation and elections to the Council are held every four years. Currently three Town Councillors are also members of the West Somerset Council.

Each year in May an Annual Council Meeting is held when the Mayor, Deputy Mayor and Committees are elected.  Each Councillor sits on at least two committees, with the Mayor and Deputy Mayor being members of all the Committees.

The Committees are as follows: Amenities and Environment, Finance and Staffing and Planning.  All meetings are now held monthly with the Planning Committee meeting on the first Tuesday of the month, the Finance Committee meeting on the second Monday of the month, the Amenities and Environment Committee meeting on the second Tuesday of the month and Full Council meeting on the fourth Tuesday of the month.  Agendas and Minutes are available for the public to read in Minehead Town Council's offices at 3 Summerland Road, Minehead TA24 5BP and on this website.  There are also a number of other Advisory Groups, some of which include representatives from other town groups.
