At last week's Honiton Town Council meeting, following a vote on the council budget for the new year, six serving councillors stood up and abruptly left the meeting. It was then made apparent, following the meeting, that these councillors had tendered their immediate resignation from the town council. The council is now left with 11 members, of whom 10 joined the council within the last eight months.
This marks an important junction in the history of the council – [with new leadership] in important roles such as the chair and vice chair of the council [...]. Now is also the time for councillors to focus on the wants of the town, and all projects – old and new – that need completing.
