Powys County Council Election Results 1973-1993 Powys County Council Election Results 1973-1993 Colin Rallings and Michael Thrasher The Elections Centre Plymouth University The information contained in this report has been obtained from a number of sources. Election results from the immediate post-reorganisation period were painstakingly collected by Alan Willis largely, although not exclusively, from local newspaper reports. From the mid- 1980s onwards the results have been obtained from each local authority by the Elections Centre. The data are stored in a database designed by Lawrence Ware and maintained by Brian Cheal and others at Plymouth University. Despite our best efforts some information remains elusive whilst we accept that some errors are likely to remain. Notice of any mistakes should be sent to [email protected]. The results sequence can be kept up to date by purchasing copies of the annual Local Elections Handbook, details of which can be obtained by contacting the email address above. Front cover: the graph shows the distribution of percentage vote shares over the period covered by the results. The lines reflect the colours traditionally used by the three main parties. The grey line is the share obtained by Independent candidates while the purple line groups together the vote shares for all other parties. Rear cover: the top graph shows the percentage share of council seats for the main parties as well as those won by Independents and other parties. The lines take account of any by- election changes (but not those resulting from elected councillors switching party allegiance) as well as the transfers of seats during the main round of local election. The lower graph shows for each main round of local elections the overall percentage turnout (solid line), the percentage of women candidates standing at (dotted line) and the percentage of women among those elected (hashed line).

I am sincerely grateful to the efforts of everyone who has helped contribute to the making of this Plan which is so important for the future of Powys. Importantly, the Plan sets out a clear and strong strategy for meeting the future needs of the county’s communities over the next decade. By focussing development on our market towns and largest villages, it provides the direction and certainty to support investment and enable economic opportunities to be seized, to grow and support viable service centres and for housing development to accommodate our growing and changing household needs. At the same time the Plan provides the protection for our outstanding and important natural, built and cultural environments that make Powys such an attractive and special place in which to live, work, visit and enjoy. Our efforts along with all our partners must now shift to delivering the Plan for the benefit of our communities. Councillor Martin Weale Portfolio Holder for Economy and Planning

  • Community No
    FINAL PROPOSALS Community No. M43 - NEWTOWN AND LLANLLWCHAIARN Introduction 1. Newtown is the largest settlement in Powys and has the range of community services and facilities that should be associated with such a settlement. It has the third highest precepting council in the county: a council that has retained a considerable sense of civic pride - deriving from the former urban district of the same name - in its activities. 2. The community has a population of 10,873, an electorate of 8,238 (2005) and a council of 16 members. The community is warded: Llanllwchaiarn North with 1,664 electors and three councillors; Llanllwchaiarn West with 1,433 and three; Newtown Central with 2,300 and three; Newtown East with 1,572 and three, and Newtown South with 1,269 and four. The precept required for 2005 is £132,785, representing a Council Tax Band D equivalent of £35.01. 3. Apart from a transfer of the area around Aberbechan Hall to the new Abermule ward of Llandyssil community, the boundaries of this community were not significantly affected by the 1986 Review. Recent development, together with its designation as a small village in the Unitary Development Plan, has meant that the small village of Aberbechan now straddles the community boundary with Llandyssil, a point to which we shall return. 4. In the 1986 Review, it was proposed and generally accepted that the community should be divided into five wards, and the final proposals of the Local Government Boundary Commission for Wales were that each ward should have an allocation of three councillors.
