The structure and role of the parish council in Southwater. Your Parish Council The Parish Council came into being in 1987 upon the demise of the Horsham Rural District Council, due to Local Government re-organisation. The Parish Council is a Statutory Body, with members elected every four years and is funded through the local precept (council tax). The income and expenditure for the next financial year are calculated in the form of a draft budget. The net amount (the precept) is then added to the council tax, collected by Horsham District Council and paid to the Parish Council in two separate instalments. The Parish Council can apply for other funding such as grants and funding awards, but it does not receive funding direct from central government as, say, the County and District Councils do. The Parish Council currently operates its offices and chamber in Beeson House. There are three tiers of local government, each with different responsibilities. SPC is considered the first and local tier. Council tax paid by all Southwater residents is collected by HDC. HDC distribute Taxes and Precepts to WSCC, HDC and SPC. SPC receive the Precept from HDC in two 50% payments. The first in April and second in September. The main source of income for SPC is the precept but also receives income from various assets, grants and will look towards new income opportunities that can reduce the total precept requirement. It should be noted that some assets within the village, whether Public Open Space or Play Areas, may be operated by HDC and some by SPC. Signage is typically found at each site which will indicate which authority but where unsure direct queries to enquiry@southwater-pc.gov.uk The Parish Council has a large range of powers and therefore is actively engaged on your behalf on a variety of different activities within the community. A list of the powers and duties available to the Parish Council can be viewed here - Powers and Duties

Inspired by the discovery and the local wildlife the children of Castlewood Primary and Southwater Academy worked with the artist commissioned to create these art screens. The Roman Lane Art Project Before the houses were built, archaeologists surveyed and excavated the area discovering a Roman past that had lain buried for over 1,700 years. Inspired by the discovery and the local wildlife the children of Castlewood Primary and Southwater Academy worked with the artist commissioned to create these art screens. The Screens The Artwork has incorporated traditional Roman designs found in mosaics and painted walls of the Roman Villas of Fishbourne and Bignor and elsewhere. It incorporates images of the local wildlife to create a 21st century vision of classical decoration. Beyond Rome After the Roman’s left in 410AD, nature took over and so the buildings disappeared from landscape and memory. Some 1400 years later a railway would be built nearby taking trains to the North Downs of Surrey and the South Down’s of Sussex. The rural line was axed in 1966, lasting only 100 years, but the remains of it can be seen along the Down’s Link, a cycle, footpath that can be joined by following the footpath. The Artist-Tim Ward Allotments are provided to enable residents of Southwater to have access to space where they can grow produce for their own consumption, whilst enjoying the social aspects of allotment gardening in a green and healthy environment. The Council supports the use of environmentally friendly methods and promotes rain harvesting systems, such as water butts. Tim likes to explore the combination of a variety of different materials, ranging from steelwork, photographic plates, glass, stone, mosaic and lighting in producing his artwork. He believes art within public spaces should encourage and stimulate interaction with the world around us and evoke a sense of pride and wonder for the unique quality of the places where we live, visit and work. Tim founded Circling the Square in 2022 and leads the design and implementation of public art, street furniture and environmental projects. Tim is an elected member of the Art Workers Guild.

The meeting is held once a year and is an opportunity for residents to hear from local organisations and community groups about their activities over the past year and is not a council meeting, but for the benefit of the community. The Annual Parish Meeting The Annual Parish Meeting , also known as the "Annual Meeting of Electors ", is not a Council meeting, but it is invariably the Council that arranges it (simply because it is unlikely that anyone else will do so). It's decisions are not binding on the Council, though a Council will normally want to take heed of what is said at the meeting. The Annual Parish Meeting is a legacy from the Middle Ages, when Local Councils did not exist, and all local decision making was carried out by meetings of the whole community, taking place in the church vestry. The Annual Parish Meeting is open to all electors of the Town or Parish, who have the right not only to attend but also to speak on any matter of local interest. This is in contrast to a Council meeting, where electors who are not Councillors have no automatic right to speak (though many councils do, of course, have a set time before or after the Council meeting when electors can raise matters of concern to them relating to items on the Agenda of a specific meeting).

Explaining the democratic process of how to become a councillor, giving guidance on next steps if one interested. Becoming a Councillor The Democratic Process What are parish councils? Local Councils (inclusive of Town and Parish Councils) are the first tier of local government. There are around 10,000 local councils throughout England, in both towns and rural areas, with over 30% of the country parished, 100,000 councillors who serve in these local councils, and representing around 16 million people. Parish councils represent the interests of their local communities, provide local services and work to improve the quality and wellbeing of life in the parish. What powers do parish councils have? They have a wide range of powers which essentially related to local matters, such as looking after community buildings, open spaces, allotments, litter bins, play areas, planning, street lighting, bus shelters, car parks, youth facilities, leisure and sports facilities, organising events, and much more. A local council also has the power to raise money through taxation, otherwise known as the precept. The precept is the parish council’s share of the council tax. The precept demand goes to the billing authority, the district council, which collects the tax for the parish council. *Figures shown are the latest data from NALC's website . Who are the councillors? Local councils are made up of councillors who are elected or co-opted. Councillors work with local people and partners, such as community groups, businesses and other organisations, to agree and deliver on local priorities. The decisions are implemented by permanent council staff, council officers, who deliver services on a daily basis. What is the role of councillors? A councillor’s primary role is to represent their local area (or ward where the council is warded) and the people who live in it. Councillors provide a bridge between the community and the council. The role brings people together. Councillors work with a diverse range of people from their community and have officers to support them in their role at the council. Councillors lead the local conversation: you can be part of that to make your area the best place it can be. It’s a varied and highly fulfilling role, and no day is the same. How can you become a councillor? There are roughly 100,000 local councillors in England. Councillors are elected to the local council to represent their own local community, so they must either live or work in the area. Each councillor has their own reasons for running but the role offers the chance to make a huge difference to the quality of life for people in your local area. The councillor’s role centres around community leadership and engagement. What does it look like in practice? Councillors serve and represent the community in many ways, for example:  •Listening and talking to people. •Keeping the community informed about local issues and events. •Reading council meeting agendas and reports, research and evidence to understand issues and participate in discussions and decisions. •Attending formal council meetings as well as meetings with local partners and organisations. •Working collaboratively with the staff, local people, voluntary and community organisations, police, health partners, and businesses to shape the future of the local area. Building strong relationships and encouraging people to get involved and share their views and ideas. •Some councillors have extra responsibilities, for example specific council projects, or positions in committees or working groups. Do I need any special qualifications? Being a councillor is a varied and highly fulfilling role. You don’t need any experience or special qualifications, and you’ll gain lots of new skills, experience, knowledge, and confidence. Why become a councillor? Being a councillor is all about giving back to your community by bringing your energy, passion, and hard-working attitude. You can make a real difference to the local community and wider society in many ways as a councillor. For example, you could be representing the views of local people to ensure the community gets the right services, supporting a resident with an issue, or helping to shape the community by driving new ideas. Is any training provided? Councillor training will be provided to all councillors to help them with their role. At Southwater Parish Council we are committed to providing councillors with the necessary training and development opportunities to ensure that the Council can meet its aims and objectives. The Council values the time given by its councillors to their community and needs to maximise the rewards from that time by ensuring that its members understand and nenjoy their role in the community. Who can be a councillor? We need people from all backgrounds and experiences who reflect the communities they serve to put themselves forward for election. You don’t need any experience or special qualifications. Your life experience, everyday skills, passion and commitment to people and communities are vital, and it’s important that councils reflect the local population. To be a councillor you need to be:  •British or a citizen of the Commonwealth. You may also be eligible as a citizen of the European Union, however the criteria has changed now that the UK has left the European Union. Please check on the gov.uk website for advice about EU citizens’ voting and candidacy rights in local elections. •At least 18 years old. •Registered to vote in the area or have lived, worked, or owned property there for at least 12 months before an election. Who can't be a councillor? You can’t be a councillor if you:  •Work for the council you want to be a councillor for, you can work for another local authority as long as you are not in a political restricted post. •Are the subject of a bankruptcy restrictions order or interim order. •Have been sentenced to prison for three months or more (including suspended sentences) during the five years before election day. •Have been convicted of a corrupt or illegal practice by an election court. •Are subject to any relevant notification requirements, or a relevant order, in respect of a sexual offence. Please read the full eligibility criteria from the Electoral Commission. If you are in any doubt about whether you are eligible to stand as a councillor, you should contact the Electoral Services or Democratic Services team at your local council (Horsham District Council) or the Electoral Commission for advice. Are councillors getting paid? Councillors are not paid a salary or wages, but they are entitled to claim allowances and expenses to cover some of the costs of carrying out their public duties. All councillors can opt to receive an annual allowance (if they are elected). Don’t be discouraged if the next elections are a long way away – there is plenty to do and learn on the journey to becoming a councillor. Starting early will help to understand the processes of standing for election and learn more about local government to hit the ground running if elected.  Likewise, from time to time, vacancies become available, and the Council has the opportunity to co-opt a prospective councillor.
