District councillor Syed Abidi has lived in Park Street for over 30 years. He was an effective District Councillor from 1996 to 1999, before his job became too busy to allow him to continue. Having taken early retirement from the Diplomatic Service, he is now free to take up local politics again to serve his local community. Syed is now serving again as a District Councillor since May 2019.

As well as his concerns regarding the future of the proposed freight terminal site, his priorities are speed reductions to 20mph on village roads and improving the maintenance of roads and public spaces.
