    SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT Issued on behalf of The Local Government Boundary Commission for Scotland Not for Publication, Broadcast or use on Club Tapes before 0001 Hours on 26 May 2016 Recommendations for councillor numbers and wards submitted to Scottish Ministers The Local Government Boundary Commission for Scotland has submitted its recommendations on councillor numbers and wards for each of Scotland's 32 council areas to Scottish Ministers. These recommendations arise from the 5th Reviews of Local Government Electoral Arrangements which began in February 2014. The recommendations provide for 351 wards and 1219 councillors across Scotland, an overall decrease of 2 wards and 4 councillors relative to existing arrangements. Under the recommendations, representation of the electorate within council areas will be more evenly shared between councillors and across Scotland there will be greater equity in electoral representation. Ronnie Hinds, Chair of the Commission, said: "Today we have submitted to Scottish Ministers our recommendations for electoral arrangements which we believe are in the interests of effective and convenient local government across Scotland. These recommendations set out the number of councillors for each council area and the boundaries of the wards they will represent. We are grateful to councils and to the public who responded to our consultations over the last two years. Their input has been invaluable in shaping our proposals and while we must take account of our obligations under the legislation and consider the interests of the whole council area, we have been able to take on board many of the views expressed. The legislation which governs our reviews places equality of representation at the heart of what we do and we have delivered a set of recommendations that significantly improves electoral parity across Scotland and so provides for fairer local democracy and more effective local government ." 1 A summary of the recommendations for each council area is contained in the appendix to this release.

  • HELENSBURGH and LOMOND Profile
    www.argyll-bute.gov.uk HELENSBURGH and LOMOND Profile June 2019 Welcome to Helensburgh and Lomond Helensburgh and Lomond has a population of just under 26,000 with Helensburgh being the largest town in Argyll and Bute. Named after the wife of Sir James Colquhoun, owner of the land on which Helensburgh was built, in Victorian times, it was said to be home to a quarter of the millionaires in Britain. It first became a popular holiday destination in the 19th century after Henry Bell introduced the Comet, Europe’s first commercial steamship, to the Glasgow to Helensburgh route. Today, Helensburgh is a popular sea-side town and was cited in the Sunday Times 2017 list of the 12 best places to live in Scotland. The criteria for selecting the top locations were based on jobs, exam results, broadband speed, culture, community spirit and local shops. Regeneration Argyll and Bute Council has been leading considerable investment in Helensburgh. Seven million pounds has already been spent refurbishing East Clyde Street and the Town Centre. Local retailers have been taking advantage of a local grant scheme to upgrade and improve their shop fronts, continuing to make the town centre a more attractive place for visitors and shoppers. When Colquhoun Square was redesigned in 2015, an integral part of its new look was the Outdoor Museum. Around 120 plinths have been erected in the Square, largely as a means of directing the little traffic which is allowed there. The long-term aim is that these plinths will gradually be filled over the years with items or replicas of items connected with Helensburgh's history and character.
