New Councillor Co-opted

Date Added: 19/07/2022

At a meeting of Sandy Town Council on Monday 11th July 2022, a new Councillor was co-opted on to the Council to fill a vacancy in Ivel Ward. One candidate applied for the single vacancy and following a vote by Councillors, Jennifer Ivanciu-Wilkinson was co-opted.

Jennifer has lived in Sandy since 2005 and feels very passionately about the town and its future development. She is involved in the Neighbourhood Plan steering group, Infrastructure Group and Friends of Sandy Christmas Lights committee. Speaking before her co-option, Jennifer said, “I would like to join the town council team as I believe that emotional energy can be put to constructive use into Sandy’s future.”

Jennifer speaks Italian and German and often travels abroad for work. She is interested in further encouraging Sandy Twinning Association, a community group which organises communication and visits between Sandy and the towns of Malaunay in Normandy, France and Skarszewy in northern Poland.

Jennifer’s career in technology sales is all about building relationships. She is keen to use her communication skills and transparency to help build residents’ support and interest in local issues. She said, “I will relay feedback and ideas back to Sandy Town Council to ensure we incorporate the wants and aspirations of the locals into future plans for Sandy.”

Cllr Ivanciu-Wilkinson also brings valuable business experience to the Council in the field of procurement and tendering processes, following her involvement in European government tenders. She hopes to contribute to the ongoing relationships the Council has with other localities including Central Bedfordshire Council.

Mayor of Sandy, Cllr Martin Pettitt said, "I'm delighted to welcome Jennifer to Sandy Town Council and thank her for putting herself forward for co-option. Jennifer brings a wealth of talent and experience to the role of councillor and I look forward to working with her in the months to come."
