The agenda for the upcoming meeting includes several key items for discussion and decision.

A variety of planning proposals are on the table, ranging from the conversion of a flat into two self-contained units on North Street East to the installation of an illuminated scoreboard at the Uppingham School Sports Centre. Tree works are also scheduled for review at Poplar Close and Spring Back Way.

The council will receive updates and minutes from recent meetings of the Planning Committee and other sub-groups.

Opportunities are provided for both the public and County Councillors to speak and raise relevant local issues.

This upcoming meeting follows a productive session on December 3rd, 2025, where the council addressed their Budget and Precept: A budget of £271,698 was approved for the 2026/27 financial year, with a precept demand of £211,148 issued to Rutland County Council.

Decisions were made to adopt additional public realm defibrillator locations and to apply for a Road Safety Grant through the Police & Crime Commissioner.

The status of Tod’s Piece Allotments as statutory land was confirmed, and the council authorised the Clerk to sign new leases for the local Bowls and Football Clubs.

Residents are encouraged to attend to stay informed about these local developments.
