Council Meetings

Ottery St Mary Town Council meet for its:

  • Full Council meeting on the first Monday of the month.
  • Planning Committee meetings meet on the third Monday of the month (subject to sufficient applications received) .
If any of the dates fall on a Public Holiday then the meeting will usually be held on another weekday after the Bank Holiday. Please see the Agendas which are posted on our Notice Boards in the Parish or the links as below. Also listed below are all future meeting dates.

Members of the public are most welcome to attend our meetings. Public participation always features on the Agenda and is an opportunity for residents to raise concerns with the Council.

Please note that due to Covid-19, (resulting in public meetings not being permitted due to/Ottery-St-Mary-Town-Council/UserFiles/Files/OSMTC Draft Minutes 5 December 2022 .pdf social distancing) the Council agreed a Business Continuity Plan/Scheme of Delegation to allow decisions to be made for Council business by a small delegation of Councillors and the CEO. 

However due to new Government Legislation, The Local Authorities and Police and Crime Panels (Coronavirus) (Flexibility of Local Authority and Police and Crime Panel Meetings) (England and Wales) Regulations 2020, this Town Council's Standing Orders have been updated, to allow the use of remote meetings while social distancing is in place.

Therefore, on 19th May 2020, the Planning Committee meeting was held remotely and it is intended that the Annual Town Council Meeting will be held in this format on Monday 1st June 2020, plus all future Council meetings. This means that the provisions in the Business Continuity Plan/Scheme of Delegation (in respect of the making of Council decisions) are negated, whilst meetings are held virtually.
