A WESTON and Worle councillor has resigned this week.

North Somerset Council received Philip Judd’s notice and will now take steps to fill the vacancy.

Cllr Judd also serves on Weston Town Council and has decided to step down from that role, too.

The Conservative councillor represented the North Somerset ward of Weston and North Worle, along with Cllr Marcia Pepperall and Cllr Sonia Russe, and was a member of North Somerset’s south area committee and adult services and housing policy and scrutiny panel.
