The Parish Council was created in 1894, and is the closest form of local government.
Originally, Chipperfield was part of the Parish Council’s administration, but now the borders are (roughly): the Grand Union Canal to the east, Whippendell Bottom to the west, Moore’s Motors to the north and the M25 to the south.
Hertfordshire County Council and Dacorum Borough Council provide the main local government services, but the Parish Council provides the extras, which help make Kings Langley a special place to live, work and to visit.
The Council is elected once every four years. There are 10 councillors representing 3 “wards”: North (2 councillors), Central (2) and South (6), and their details can be found elsewhere on this website.
The Council’s current chair is Howard Button, and the vice-chair, Gerry Angiolini.
The other Members are:
Alan Anderson, Mark Coxill, Rene De Silva, Debbi James-Saunders, Alan Johnson, Jennie Lydon, John Morrish and Mark Rogers.
Gerry Angiolini is the chair of the Planning & Licensing Committee; Rene De Silva is vice-chair. The other (standing) members of the committee are: Alan Anderson, Howard Button, Debbi James-Saunders, Alan Johnson, Jennie Lydon and Mark Rogers. Mark Coxill and John Morrish are reserve members.
These positions are reviewed at the Council’s annual meeting (normally in May).
The Council has 3 permanent members of staff:
Clerk to the Council (part-time)
Administrative Assistant (part-time)
Village Warden (full-time).
