Crunch meeting for local voice coming up next month

THE Wick Royal Burgh of Wick Community Council has had to abandon its monthly meeting, tonight (Monday) because of a lack of support.
Chairwoman Ruth Black e-mail member with the news that because of the high number of apologies, it was not possible to secure the necessary quorum minimum, necessary to hold the meeting.
Ms Black gave notice at last month’s meeting that she intended standing down as chair at the AGM in April, because of personal commitments and also that she felt couldn’t cope with the problems the council had to deal with.
The body’s next meeting is scheduled for March 4, at Wick Assembly Rooms when the apathy will be tested against the town’s motto, “Wick works weil”.
