I hope that everyone had a good Christmas and took the opportunity to enjoy time with family and friends.
The festivities are still ongoing for us as I'm sure they are for most of you, but I just wanted to draw your attention to one small thing that has been mentioned here previously.
There has been some discussion about videoing of Council meetings and how and why this could be done. Personally I think it's a fantastic idea.
It seems that this idea may continue to progress even though the initial question was dismissed at the meeting when asked. The corporate scruitiny will be discussing this on the 11th January.
The agenda can be viewed here:

Welcome to my blog.
I was elected as Councillor for Macclesfield West in May 2008. I live in the centre of the ward with my Wife and Westie, and when I'm not a Councillor I'm a Scout Leader and I run a small consultancy business.
I'm equally at home cycling around the town as I am walking the dog up Shutlingsloe – Macclesfield is one of the few places that can provide this town and country balance.
This blog is intended to give the residents of Macclesfield West an insight into the work that I am doing on their behalf. This could be better services and facilities for children and young people, or perhaps trying to achieve a better plan for the Macclesfield Town Centre redevelopment. At all times I'm keen on reducing costs and keeping council tax as low as possible.
The blog is intended to be little lighthearted at times, perhaps irreverent but never irrelevant. You're encouraged to comment on each post and have your say - it's a great way to debate the issues of the day.
How can I contact the Council?
