Deadline for Boundary Commission Comments
This information was originally published by Councillor Cuthbert in the Kinross Newsletter in October 2015
The Local Government Boundary Commission Scotland (LGBCS) are carrying out a review of local ward boundaries throughout Scotland.
These ward boundaries define administrative areas and the number of Councillors who will be elected in them.
The current proposal is to take a large chunk out of Kinross-shire, placing it in Ward 9 (Almond and Earn) and to reduce the number of Councillors representing Kinross-shire from four down to three.
I would ask all readers to contact the LGBCS to object to this proposal.
You can comments on the Boundary Commission Poposals in the following ways:
Online: www.consultation.lgbe-scotland.gov.uk/node/31
Email: lgbcs@scottishboundaries.gov.uk
Phone: 0131 538 7510
Fax: 0131 538 7511
Letter: Thistle House, 91 Haymarket Terrace, Edinburgh, EH12 5HD
Comments have to be in by 22 October 2015.
Please do this. If you don’t, Kinross-shire will be split apart.
Councillor Dave Cuthbert
Independent Councillor for Kinross-shire
