THE PARISH COUNCILS
Parish Councils are statutory authorities and can act as your link to Chorley Borough Council and Lancashire County Council. The Parish Councils are consulted on a variety of issues by Chorley Borough Council, Lancashire County Council and Government bodies. These include such things as the Local Structure Plan, planning applications and Public Rights of Way. The Lancashire Parish Council web portal can be viewed here for additional information.
Parish Councillors may be contacted on a variety of matters concerning the Parish's such as planning applications, condition of roads, untidy sites, litter, community schemes, street lighting and transport.
The Parish Councils meet regularly to discuss matters of local importance and interest. Wheelton Parish Council meets monthly and Heapey Parish Council every second month. However, Parish Councillors are continually working on matters (outside of meetings) for the benefit of the Parish and welcome any comments you may have.
Any suggestions or complaints on any matter concerning the Parish of Wheelton or Heapey can be made in writing to the Clerk to the Parish Council, details on the Contact Us Page. The matter will then be dealt with at the next meeting of the relevant Parish Council.
