Gweek Parish Council meets in the Reading Room on the third Tuesday of each month, with the exception of August when there is no meeting. Meetings commence at 7.30pm and parishioners are welcome to attend. Time is set aside at each meeting for public participation when members of the public are invited to raise items. It should be noted that this is the only part of the meeting when members of the public are permitted to speak and that the Parish Council is unable to discuss an item unless it is included on the agenda. Therefore, if the matter is not already on the agenda for that meeting, it will not be discussed in full until a future meeting. A wide range of topics are covered at meetings and an agenda for each meeting is displayed on the parish notice board.

Cornwall Council is the authority responsible for planning, highways, public rights of way and numerous issues affecting the parish. However, such matters can be raised with Gweek Parish Council at Parish Council meetings, or by contacting Mrs JM Nicholas, Clerk to the Council, 1 Springfield Meadow, Mawgan, Cornwall, TR12 6AX, telephone 01326 221911.

Please see the parish notice board (by the lower entrance to Meneth) for information relating to the Parish Council and for details of planning applications submitted for sites within the parish. Planning applications can also be viewed online here
