The monthly Blackbird Leys Parish Council meeting will be postponed to mark the death of former councillor Val Smith.
The council usually meets on the last Tuesday of every month, which would be Tuesday, May 26. But because Mrs Smith’s funeral is on the same day, at 11.15am at the Church of the Holy Family in Blackbird Leys Road, the council have moved it to the following Tuesday, June 2.
Chairman Gordon Roper said: “It’s going to be a difficult day.”
Mrs Smith died on Friday after a long battle with cancer.
