Dear Geoff Hotchkin
We are contacting you regarding the Lincs Reservoir Community Liaison Group (CLG) and the recent process we’ve undertaken for electing a group Chair.
As you are aware, we asked members of the CLG to vote for a Chair by 28 January. The voting process has now finished, and we can confirm that Charles Campion has been unanimously elected to the position of Lincs Reservoir CLG Chair.
For reference, Mr Campion’s application is attached to this email.
We look forward to welcoming you and the new Chair at our next CLG meeting (date to be advised shortly).
