Jean Hick, wife of Petersfield’s first elected Mayor Ken Hick opened the new expanded Council chamber on 25 September at a ceremony with former Town Mayors and the Mayors of Whitehill and Alton.

The horseshoe table has been retained but there’s more space for the public.

The dignified design makes an ideal place for the Council’s deliberations and ideal to hire for special events.

Mike Waddington reports from the opening ceremony and speaks to Jean, the current Mayor, Councillor Chris Paige, the Mayors of Alton and Whitehill, former Mayor J C Crissy and Town Clerk Rochelle Halliday.
