Shared on behalf of the Local Government Boundary Commission for England
Deadline: 11th November 2024
A public consultation has been launched to help shape new council wards for North East Lincolnshire. The Local Government Boundary Commission for England wants to hear people’s views on where they live, to help make sure that the new wards reflect the size and shape of local communities.
An electoral review is being carried out to make sure that each local councillor represents about the same number of electors, and that the wards they represent reflect community identities.
Following an earlier consultation with the Council, the Commission concluded that North East Lincolnshire needs 42 councillors to be able to operate effectively. This is the same number as they have now.
The consultation on this stage of the electoral review of North East Lincolnshire lasts for ten weeks and closes on 11th November. The Commission will use local views to help draw up their proposals for new ward boundaries.
Local people can provide their views via the Commission website at: North East Lincolnshire | LGBCE- external site
