Peter GossSummary
This report proposes some changes to polling places in the Borough
for the forthcoming Elections in the light of experience from the
elections in 2002 and the Parliamentary By-Election in 2003. The
ward boundary review and a major review of polling district
boundaries came into effect in May 2002. In September 2002 a number
of changes to polling district boundaries were agreed as a result
of the parliamentary boundary review to ensure that polling
districts did not cross constituency boundaries. It is the
intention that another polling district boundary review be
undertaken in September 2004 so that any changes can be made before
the new electoral register is published on 1st December 2004.
