Agendas and minutes

An agenda is the list of items the parish council will discuss at a meeting. Minutes are the written record of what was decided. Together they are the clearest way to see how Bucknell Parish Council spends your precept, what it says about planning, and what it has agreed to do next.

This page lists the meetings in date order, newest first, so you can find the papers for the next meeting or look back at an earlier one without hunting through a folder of files. Older papers are kept in the archived documents section.

Meetings by year

The list below runs from the newest meeting to the oldest, grouped by year. Each entry names the meeting month and the papers available: the agenda, and the minutes marked as draft or approved.

The parish council usually meets in January, March, May, July, September and November. In May there are two extra sets of papers: the Annual Parish Meeting (APM), which is a meeting for residents, and the Annual Meeting of the Parish Council (AMPC), where the council appoints its chair and sets its arrangements for the year.

Papers from earlier years are held in the archived documents section of the site. If you cannot see what you need, ask the clerk.

Frequently asked questions

When are agendas published?

The agenda for each meeting is added to this page ahead of the meeting, once it has been finalised by the clerk. The exact number of days' notice given is not confirmed here; contact the clerk if you need to know for a particular meeting.

When are minutes approved?

Minutes are first published as a draft after the meeting, then agreed at the following meeting. Once agreed they are marked as approved, or approved (amended) if a correction was made before they were signed off.

How do I request an older document?

Papers from earlier years are kept in the archived documents section. If you cannot find what you need, email the clerk at bucknell.clerk@gmail.com with the meeting month and year and what you are looking for.

Can I get the papers in another format?

Ask the clerk. Tell us which document you need and the format that would help, and we will do what we can to provide it. Call 07712627409 or email bucknell.clerk@gmail.com.

Reading the papers and downloading a PDF

Each agenda and set of minutes is offered as a document you can open and download. Minutes labelled draft have not yet been agreed by the council; minutes labelled approved have been signed off at a later meeting. Where minutes were corrected before approval, they are marked as approved (amended) — the January 2026 minutes are an example.

If you would rather have a plain summary of what was decided at a particular meeting than read the full document, say which meeting you are interested in and the clerk can point you to the right item.

Asking for an item to be added to an agenda

If you want the parish council to discuss something, ask the clerk to put it on the agenda for the next meeting. Email bucknell.clerk@gmail.com or call 07712627409, and include your name, a short description of the item and any background the councillors would need.

Agendas must be published a set number of days before a meeting, so there is a cut-off for adding items. The exact notice period for Bucknell Parish Council is not confirmed here — please check with the clerk before you send your request, and send it as early as you can.

Get in touch

If you cannot find a set of papers, want an item added to the agenda, or need a document in a different format, contact the parish clerk by email at bucknell.clerk@gmail.com or by phone on 07712627409.
