The town council is the first level of government, with representation closest to the electors. We deal with local issues which specifically affect Framlingham. All councillors must be resident, local or work in Framlingham.
Town councillors receive no remuneration.
They are all volunteers who willingly give their time and skills for the benefit of the town. Unlike District and County councillors the Town Councillors bring no political allegiances to their work. All Council business is strictly controlled. Councillors must declare in writing any personal interest and abstain from debating and voting on matters which affect them or their families. Eileen Coe is the Clerk to the Council.
