Public & Community Relations
During the months of April and May 2002, the St. James Parish
Council held our first ever annual Community
Fora at the local government level.
Response was enthusiastic, and we would like to thank the
members of the public who attended.
Your input was lively, timely, and vitally important in
enabling the Parish Council to respond effectively to the needs of
the parish.

Where were the Community
Fora Held?
|
|
The 17 electoral Divisions were clustered into 9 areas
encompassing the entire parish, including both rural and urban areas

What was the Purpose of the Fora?
|
|
The purpose of the forums was twofold.
Firstly, presentations were given to inform the public about
the responsibilities and services of the Parish Council, and
secondly, to present the proposed recurrent budget 2002-3 and
the Financing Plan 2002-3.
Questions and concerns from the public formed the bulk of the
allotted time.
