Have Your Say on Local Government
Written by News on 09/04/2021
The local council in your area is changing.
The Government is looking to replace our current 2 tier district / county councils to 1 tier ‘unitary’ authorities.
This is the biggest shake up of council boundaries since 1974 and the change will affect us all.
There are 4 proposals:
• The Bay – Proposed by South Lakeland, Barrow Borough and Lancaster City Councils
• North & South Cumbria – Submitted by Carlisle & Eden Borough Councils
• West & East Cumbria – Submitted by Allerdale & Copeland Borough Councils
• One Cumbria – Submitted by Cumbria County Council
Tell the Government what you think. It is your right to be part of the consultation process, so have your say now!
The consultation is running until the 19th April.
Email unitaryconsultation@communities.gov.uk (Please include your name and state that you are a resident living in the area affected)
or write to Government Reform and Democracy, Ministry of Housing, Communities and Local Government, 2 Marsham Street, London SW1P 4DF.
