Parish Councillor Vacancy

Do you want to get involved in decisions regarding Mollington?

Becoming a Parish Councillor is a great way to be involved and be part of the small team that look after and manage the playing fields, the village maintenance,  address planning applications, co-ordinate Neighbourhood Watch and liaise with local policing teams and develop local and emergency plans with other parishes.

 You can make a difference by standing as a Councillor to ensure we have the maximum number of 5 members, who meet in public six times a year in the Village Hall.

 Please contact the Clerk (clerk@mollingtonoxon-pc.gov.uk) for further information, or come along to the next Parish Council meeting to have an informal chat.

As we head towards the wetter months of the year, here is some information to assist with any queries from residents about flooding.

Oxfordshire County Council (OCC), as the Lead Local Flood Authority, works with partners to lead and coordinate any flood response. Cherwell supports OCC along with other agencies to monitor any developments and keep people informed, but we do not offer an emergency service during flooding.

Burst water mains are managed by Thames Water, with any resulting highways matters being addressed by OCC highways.

Residents and businesses are responsible for protecting their own properties. To help them prepare, please direct them to the OCC flood toolkit www.oxfordshirefloodtoolkit.com. This kit contains advice on preparing for flooding and what to do during and after a flood.

We also recommend that residents and businesses:

  • Register for flood warnings on gov.uk/sign-up-for-flood-warnings. These warnings will soon be replaced by an improved Environment Agency service called Get Flood Warning. This has been designed for use by residents, organisations and professional partners, and all existing flood warning accounts will be migrated across to it this autumn.
  • Sign up for Met Office weather warnings.
