  • Sheffield City Council’S Response to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England’S Draft Recommendations on Warding Arrangements for Sheffield
    Sheffield City Council – response to Local Government Boundary Commission for England draft recommendations on warding arrangements for Sheffield 1. Introduction 1.1. This document contains Sheffield City Council’s response to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England’s draft recommendations on warding arrangements for Sheffield. The Council submission represents the view of the majority group, and points of difference with the opposition groups are noted where relevant in the text. Responses from the Liberal Democrat and Green groups are included in full in appendices at Appendix A and Appendix B. The submission also appends the minutes of a specially convened meeting of the Overview and Scrutiny Management Committee, and the submissions of community representatives who gave evidence to which have already been sent to you (see Appendix C and D). 1.2. All political groups are largely supportive of the majority of the Commission’s proposals, which largely replicate the proposals put forward by the Council in our response to the consultation on warding arrangements. We do, however, have a number of comments and alternative proposals to address some of the areas where we do not believe that the Commission’s recommendations are satisfactory. 1.3. This response starts by reiterating the Council’s approach to developing our boundary proposals and then addresses the Council’s main point of concern first, followed by the remaining points of difference. 2. Future-proofing Sheffield 2.1. As stated in our submission to the Commission in July 2014, in developing our proposal the Council adhered to the Commission’s statutory criteria, and at the same time sought to propose a scheme of wards which takes into account the potential for significant growth in certain areas of the city and minimises the risk of an early review.

  • Sheffield City Council Submission
    Submission to LGBCE consultation on boundaries 1. Introduction 1.1. This document is Sheffield City Council’s response to the Local Government Boundary Commission for England (the Commission) consultation on ward boundaries for Sheffield City Council. 1.2. Sheffield City Council believes that the pattern of wards proposed in this submission is the best solution for Sheffield. They represent a pragmatic response to the current electoral inequality, whilst maintaining the best of the current sensible arrangements, with wards shaped around community identity. We have developed our warding scheme based on our extensive knowledge of the city and its communities, boosted by consultation with community groups where required. It represents a largely shared view across political groups, with only a few areas of disagreement. Where there is disagreement between the majority Labour group and minority groups, these disagreements are noted, with an appendix containing alternative proposals. 1.3. Maps of the proposed boundaries are appended at Appendix A. 2. Background 2.1. In October 2012, the Local Government Boundary Commission (the Commission) informed the Council that it was to carry out an Electoral Review of Sheffield City Council in order to deliver electoral equality for voters in local elections. 2.2. The Commission required that in determining the number of Councillors, it agreed the Council’s projected electorate for 2020. Based on Office for National Statistics data, and the methodology set out by the Commission, a projected electorate for 2020 of 415,797 was agreed with the Commission. 2.3. In March 2014 the Commission went out to public consultation on a Council size of 84 elected Members.
