A newly-elected commissioner in Port Erin says she'll encourage the authority to listen more to the views of local people.
Barbara Guy, who's new to local politics, won a seat on the board at a by-election on Thursday.
She wants to ensure plenty of opportunities for local youngsters and has made revitalisation of the village her priority.
Mrs Guy says the board exists to serve the needs of the local community and in her view, needs more input from ratepayers:
Substantial damaged caused by fire station blaze
Two firefighters were treated at the scene for minor injuries.
‘No risk to public’ after fire at Castletown Fire Station
Emergency services tackle blaze near Ronaldsway
Not one affordable house available to buy
There were 266 applicants on the register as of 20 July
