We have established ground rules for public participation at Forum meetings please read and understand these so we can ensure that our meeting time is both positive and productive. 

Public participation guidelines for Borough of Bedford Local Access Forum (BoBLAF) meetings.

Members of the public are most welcome to attend Borough of Bedford Local Access Forum (BoBLAF) meetings and present any matter relevant to Public Rights of Way and Access matters in Bedford Borough. 10 minutes is set aside at the start of each meeting for all public participants. If a member of the public wishes to speak at a meeting, it would be preferred that they contact the Secretary of the BoBLAF ( BoBLAF.Secretary@bedford.gov.uk)  at least a week (preferably two weeks) before the meeting indicating the topic(s) they wish to discuss.

Outside of this ‘Public Participation’ session at every meeting, members of the public may not participate in BoBLAF discussions unless specifically invited to do so by the Chair of the meeting.

Minutes of a BoBLAF meeting will be approved at the following meeting, and thereafter will normally be posted on this page within 10 working days, together with papers from that meeting which the Council has approved for wider sharing.
