Staff forums and Euro elections ...



I’m looking forward to meeting and presenting at the Trowbridge staff forums today. About 800 of you have signed up and Jane, Carolyn, Maggie and I will run through and celebrate some of the achievements of the past six months and talk about the future – the outcomes we seek for the county, our priorities and some of the challenges we face too. The format this spring is a little different too so please feedback what you think. And please ask lots of questions...

The Euro election preparation is moving toward its climax next week. We have received, opened, scanned and checked over 30,000 postal votes and training for polling station presiding officers and clerks is well underway. This morning I shall be meeting the election team to review the Trowbridge verification centre layout (similar sessions in Malmesbury, Devizes and Salisbury) to ensure that we are all prepared. The count will be on the Sunday in Christie Miller, Melksham. Exciting stuff for us election junkies.

Earlier in the week I met with Balfour Beatty and Wiltshire Council highways management to work together on our collaborative organisation development. This is so important to get right to address some of the issues that we have faced over the last few months. We made good progress.
