ELECTING NEW FIRST CITIZEN OF BRIGG PUT ON HOLD DURING LOCKDOWN


Brigg will not be electing a new Town Mayor  as planned later this month due to the Coronavirus emergency and lockdown.
The appointment of a new first citizen to serve for 12 months has been put on hold, anud suggestions it would be insensitive and inappropriate to hold the usual cheery Mayor-making ceremony in the present climate.
Current Town Mayor Coun Sharon Riggall will continue in this role until it is thought appropriate to induct a successor.
Waiting patiently to become Town Mayor for the first time is Coun Brian Parker, currently Deputy Town Mayor and Mayor Elect. He also chairs the Planning & Environment Committee.
Coun Riggall told the authority's latest meeting that Coun Parker would make a fantastic Mayor.
Coun Carl Sherwood said Mayor-making was a joyous occasion. "I just don't think it's right to do it at this time," he stressed.
Coun Rob Waltham suggested it would be unfair if the new Mayor did not get the opportunity to serve for a full year.
Coun Penny Smith felt it would be deeply insensitive to hold a ceremony at present.
Brigg's Mayor-making ceremonies are usually followed by an upbeat social gathering attended by councillors, guests and family members/friends of the newly-installed Mayor.
Mayors also attend many functions and events - all cancelled at present - and raise money for charity through a 12-month appeal fund.
North Lincolnshire Council has also decided not to induct a new district Mayor during the current virus-related emergency.

My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough. here is his Email: emutemple@gmail.com or call/text him on his WhatsApp +2347012841542
