The city council has organised induction sessions for newly-appointed Community Councillors:
Congratulations on your appointment as a community council member. The Council values the commitment and input of community councils and we look forward to working in partnership with you.
The CC elections attracted a high proportion of new members and I am delighted to invite new members to a community council induction session. If spaces remain then this will be opened up to returning CC members. I’d also like to make you aware that support materials are available on the council website.
The induction session aims to provide an introduction to the roles and responsibilities of community councils and community councillors, such as their statutory responsibilities in terms of planning, licensing and community planning.
The same session will be held on the following dates:
Saturday 9 November, City Chambers, High Street from 10 am until 12.30.
Wednesday 13 November, City Chambers, High Street from 6.00 pm – 8.40
Please respond to community.councils@edinburgh.gov.uk if you are a new member and would like to attend on either of the above dates by Friday 1 November 2019.
Please let us know of anything you need to help you take part eg large print, disabled access requirements, hearing loop etc.
There will be opportunities at the induction for networking and discussion and putting forward your ideas for future training and support.
