Liz was elected to District Council in 2019 to represent the North Molton Ward, the parishes of Twitchen, Molland, Brayford, East and West Buckland, and North Molton.
"I am widely experienced in dealing with local problems & concerns having been on North Molton Parish Council for over 20 years! With the Parish Council we have instigated a Highways Committee & with funding from Devon County Council match funded with money from the local precept & local businesses we have started a project employing local contractors to get our roads back into good condition with drainage work & verge trimming after years of neglect. I have had to liaise with the link road contractors and am constantly battling to our access back to the Link Road as soon as possible!
Our community pubs, shops and garages need all our support, but we also need to build homes that local families can afford to live in. We do need more housing, but it needs to be the right housing in the right place and when planning permission is given I will work with councils and developers to deliver the quality and community gain as promised.
I will continue to work closely with our County Councillor Jeremy Yabsley and our MP Selaine Saxby to lobby on behalf of all of the people, businesses and families in our area." - Liz
