Have your say on a new political map for Malvern Hills District Council
New boundaries are being proposed for council wards in Malvern Hills District Council.
The Local Government Boundary Commission wants to hear what residents and local organisations think about the proposals. A 10-week week consultation on the proposals will run until 21 March 2022.
The Commission is the independent body that draws these boundaries. It is reviewing Malvern Hills to make sure councillors will represent about the same number of electors, and that ward arrangements will help the council work effectively.
It is proposed there should be 31 councillors, with 13 single-councillor wards, six two-councillor wards, and two three-councillor wards.
Proposed changes include:
- Significantly altered wards for Malvern to unite key centres within the town
- New wards in the north east of the district based on responses from parishes and councillors
How can I comment on the proposals?
To have your say all you need to do is tell the Local Government Boundary Commission what you think of the proposals and your reasons why. You are also welcome to put forward alternative proposals.
