Hello,
As some of you know me or are aware of me you may not know that I sit on The St Heliers Roads Committee.
It is time for re-elections and I am seeking your vote for re-election to the The Roads Committee on behalf of St Helier Parish. I would like to ask for your support as residents of St Helier by joining me tonight (Wednesday 14th) at 7.00pm in The Town Hall to vote for me.
I have been a dedicated member of the committee since 2015 and I offer my experience, dedication and time to ensuring St Helier adheres correctly and properly to the Loi (1914) sur la Voirie regulation.
The Parish Assembly meeting starts at 7.00pm at the Town Hall and in order to vote you need to be either a ratepayer in St Helier or be on the electoral roll.
The Roads Committee is the highways authority for Parish roads in each Parish. It carries out numbers vital role for the Parishes such as overseeing the repair and maintenance of by-roads in the Parish, establishes boundary stones, examines planning applications that fall within its responsibilities, supervises refuse collection, adjudicates fines during the Visite du Branchage and proposes new road names when necessary for approval by the Parish Assembly.
The Constable presides over the Roads Committee, which also includes a Rector and three Principals of the Parish [five Principals for Saint Helier] elected for a term of three years by the Parish Assembly.
The committee also undertakes additional non-statutory responsibilities with regard to parks and other matters and acts as an advisory body to the Constable. By convention, the two Procureurs du Bien Public of St Helier attend meetings of the Roads Committee, but cannot vote.
As you can see from above this is a vital role that requires someone with my experience to be a proactive member of the Roads Committee.
