Audit Notice 2024

Hay Town Council has issued a Tender for the build of a new parking area. 

HTC has received a number of complaints from local residents regarding the Community Festival. Whilst this is a concern to us, unfortunately the Festival is in Clyro Electoral Ward, therefore HTC has no control of the situation and only have the same opportunities to complain as any resident.

We have directed all complaints that HTC have received to our County Councillor, Clyro County Councillor and Clyro Parish Council   who have reported the issues to Environmental Health.

If you have any issues or concerns please contact the relevant County Councillor.
