Lacey Green Parish Council needs a second Councillor for the Speen Ward

Unfortunately there were no nominations for a replacement Parish Councillor for Roger Craft when the process closed on the 2nd April 2025. As from the 1st May there will only be one Councillor representing Speen.

Being a Parish Councillor is a very satisfying voluntary role representing the local community and overseeing maintenance of local assets and planning applications, as well as assisting and providing advice for the local community wherever possible and awarding various grants when applied for.

Parish Councillors are also involved with Speedwatch / traffic calming campaigns, organising speed monitoring equipment, arranging appropriate signage by the side of the roads at village entrances and the painted speed limits on the roads by liaising with Buckinghamshire Council. A councillor must also notify Buckinghamshire Council whenever street signs need replacing and organising designated public area grass maintenance.

A Parish Councillor will also be involved with organising the benches/seats around the Parish, bus shelters and notice boards and the Parish Garden of Remembrance and Cemetery.

The Parish Council also keeps a watching brief over the general appearance of the local environment and surroundings, liaising with the Buckinghamshire Unitary authority and other interested parties to ensure that our local surroundings can be enjoyed by all residents, their visitors and, indeed, all other visitors to the area.

Lacey Green Parish Council is an apolitical Parish Council. The Parish Council meets once monthly (with exception of August). Meetings are held in Speen and Lacey Green on a Monday evening.

If you are interested in understanding what is involved and want further details on how to apply etc. please contact in the first instance the clerk of Lacey Green Parish Council , Frank Post , by email – clerk@laceygreen-pc.org.uk
