PEOPLE in Exeter are being given the chance to quiz councillors on any “burning” issues for the city.

Exeter residents are invited to put forward questions to members of the joint County and City Councils' Exeter Board, at their next meeting on July 17 at 6pm in the Civic Centre.

The Board allocates 15 minutes for their ‘open forum’, with 3 minutes per speaker, with a maximum of 3 - 4 speakers to allow time for discussion.

Previously, residents have prompted debate about issues including street lighting, homelessness and waste collection.

Anyone wishing to speak is requested to submit their question or a brief outline of any points they may wish to make by 12 noon on Monday 14 July to Howard Bassett, Democratic Services Officer, Exeter City Council, Civic Centre, Paris Street, Exeter EX1 1JN or email howard.bassett@exeter.gov.uk The agenda will be available to view online seven days before the meeting at www.exeter.gov.uk
