Wix Parish Council

Wix Parish Council serves the residents of Wix. We assist with crime prevention and liaise with both Tendring District Council and Essex County Council on behalf of our residents.

The Council is made up of seven councillors and a part-time clerk (who is the Proper Officer and Responsible Financial Officer of the Council). The electorate vote the Councillors onto the council at the May elections which are held every four years. If there are fewer than 8 candidates then an election is not held and the candidates automatically become councillors (unless there is a strong objection by a member of the public).

There is more detail about  "who does what" on the responsibilities page.
