The Town Clerk, Lynne Compton, attends all of the meetings to make sure that decisions are taken legally and then carried out properly (the Properties and Contracts Officer, Karen Hiser, attends the Projects meetings). The Town Clerk also advises the councillors on policy regulations and regularly talks to local and regional authorities on the Council's behalf.
