There are Leeds City Council elections in three years out of four, with no elections in 1981, 1985, 1989 and so on, except that because of the Covid pandemic, there were no elections in2020, but elections in 2021. The elections in 1980, 2004 and 2018 were contested on new ward boundaries, with three seats up for election in each ward. In other years only one seat was up for election in each ward, except in a few cases when there was also a casual vacancy to be filled. Sometimes when the boundaries of a ward were changed, its name also changed. The years from 1980 in which a ward of a given name existed are given after the name. Current wards are listed first, followed by former wards. The lists of Councillors by ward are followed by an alphabetical index of all the Councillors elected in the given period.

Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise the everlasting King Praise him for his grace and favour To our fathers in distress: Praise him, still the same for ever, Slow to chide, and swift to bless Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise Him! Glorious in His faithfulness Father-like He tends and spares us: Well our feeble frame He knows In His hands He gently bears us, Rescues us from all our foes Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise Him! Widely as His mercy flows Angels, help us to adore Him Ye behold Him face to face Sun and moon, bow down before him: Dwellers all in time and space Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise with us the God of grace PRAYERS AND THANKSGIVING HYMN On a hill far away stood an old rugged cross The emblem of suffering and shame: And I love that old cross where the dearest and best For a world of sinners was slain So I'll cherish the old rugged cross Till my trophies at last lay down: I will cling to the old rugged cross And exchange it someday for a crown 0, the old rugged cross, so despised by the world Has a wondrous attraction for me: For the dear Lamb of God left his glory above To bear it to dark Calvary In the old rugged cross, stained with blood so divine, A wondrous beauty I see: For'twas on that old cross Jesus suffered and died To pardon and sanctify me.

MEMBERS OF COUNCIL: Good afternoon, Deputy Lord Mayor. THE DEPUTY LORD MAYOR: Thank you. Please be seated. Members of Council, Officers and visitors, I extend a warm welcome to the visitors, and especially to announce that we have the Morley Town Mayor, Councillor Derek Bradley, who is here to observe our meeting this afternoon. I extend a welcome. (Applause) Could I remind everyone to please make sure their mobile phones are switched off. Firstly, I would like to extend congratulations to Councillor Bill Hyde on the announcement that he is to be the Lord Mayor Elect. (Applause) And at this point I know Councillor Hyde would like to say a few words. COUNCILLOR W. HYDE: Very few, Deputy Lord Mayor, and entirely no doubt against procedural rules. I would like to thank everybody for that round of applause, which was almost unanimous (Laughter), and to announce that I have asked Councillor Anne Castle to be Deputy Lord Mayor, and that she has accepted. Thank you, Deputy Lord Mayor. (Applause) THE DEPUTY LORD MAYOR: I am sure you and your partners will enjoy the experience, as I have so far. It is with regret, since the last meeting, I have to announce the following deaths: Honorary Alderman Eleanor Gertrude Clark, Member of Leeds City Council from 1968-1980; Honorary Alderman Rita Verity, Member of Morley Borough Council from 1970-1974 and Leeds City Council from 1974-79, and then 1982-86.
