Death Announced of Former Mayor Cllr Chris Williams
26 May 2023
Cllr Chris Williams who joined the Town Council in 2019 and served as the Town Mayor in 2022-2023 has died after a short illness.
Cllr Steven Consterdine, the current Town Mayor, paid tribute to Cllr Williams for the work he did for the council and said “I am saddened to hear the news about Chris he was both a friend and fellow councillor. Always dapper in his appearance, he embraced the role of being a councillor and was proud to have served as the Mayor. His enthusiasm and humour will be greatly missed. Our condolences go out to his family.”
Town Mayor & Deputy 2023 -2024
Councillor Steven Consterdine was announced as the new Town Mayor at the Council AGM meeting last night held at Penmaenmawr Community Centre.
Steven said “It is with a sense of Pride and honour that I accept this office in such an important and historical building, which this year is celebrating its Centenary year.
Growing up here as a small boy, I can honestly say I did not think I would one day be Mayor. But I am proud to serve such an amazing community, which time and again proves what it means to be a resident here. 100 years ago, a community came together to build this magnificent building, and more recently came together to build The Penmaenmawr Phoenix Football Club, proving that Community is very much still in the hearts of our residents.
So, it is with that sense of community that I intend to lead this council on behalf of its residents. I would like to Thank our outgoing Mayor Cllr C Williams for the hard work and determination that was shown in what can only be described as a very difficult year, in which he held our Council together ensuring that we could indeed continue to support our community”.
Cllr Sarah Williams was elected as the Deputy Mayor.
