We are trying out a new way of involving local people in
the way public services are delivered. Instead of a local board for
Dover, new neighbourhood forums for each ward will join up KCC with
Dover District Council and the town and parish councils in one
forum, giving residents greater influence over local
services.
Come along to our neighbourhood forums and tell us about the
issues affecting life where you live.
There are five neighbourhood forums in
Dover:
For more information about why we are trying out these new
neighbourhood forums in Dover, instead of a local board for Dover,
read the background papers.
Special Dover Neighbourhood Forums
Special Dover Neighbourhood Forums meetings will be held on the
LDF at Dover Town Hall on 9 April, arrival at 6pm to start at
6.30pm, and at Deal Town Hall on 16 April. Read the
agenda for the meetings.

Funding for local

Each county council member can recommend local projects for
financial support, up to £10,000 a year per councillor.
Each Local Board can also consider bids of up to £20,000 for
larger projects, which will be considered alongside bids from other
local projects in Kent.
There is also £400,000 available through the Local Schemes
Grant.
