Nailsea Town Council is elected every four years. The Town is divided into five Wards, Mizzymead, Yeo, West End, Golden Valley and Youngwood and four Councillors represent each Ward. The Town Council and its Committees meet most Wednesday evenings at 7:30pm at Four Oaks, Silver Street. At full Town Council meetings there is a 10 minute public participation section when any resident may raise issues relevant to the Town.   Nailsea has an active and enthusiastic Town Council whose members are keen to maintain a good quality of life for residents. In April every year the Council holds an Annual Town Meeting to explain to residents the work it has undertaken on their behalf and to seek their views and comments.
