The proposed changes have great significance for the current Alvechurch ward with its three elected members serving on the District Council. We contend the Commission’s efforts to ensure electoral equality fail the Alvechurch area in terms of the other matters it must consider: a local community’s own identity and interests, the ease of identifying ward boundaries, and boundary choices which do not break local ties. In place of the Commission’s proposals for three new wards – Alvechurch Village, Alvechurch South and Barnt Green and Hopwood we offer the alternative of two wards; Alvechurch North and Alvechurch South. We think these meet the electoral equality test by being on or near the Bromsgrove average number of electors for each District Councillor, once the Parish of Beoley is detached from the count of electors in Alvechurch Parish.
