Consultation on proposals
We have proposed a new pattern of wards. We want to hear the views of local people and organisations to help us produce our recommendations for change.
As a result of our draft recommendations on new warding patterns, we are making changes to the electoral arrangements for the following parish/town councils:
Initial consultation
We ask local people and organisations to tell us about their communities.
Please note - We identified a misattribution of forecast electors in Vale of White Horse, based on outdated polling district boundaries. We updated 2029 figures for polling districts SGA, XAD2, and XAE2 on 19 January to reflect the correct figures.
Councillor numbers
We have decided that Vale of White Horse District Council should have 39 councillors.
Effective date
The Vale of White Horse (Electoral Changes) Order 2014 was made on 8 January 2014.
The new arrangements came into effect at the May 2015 elections.
Final report
Our recommendations for new electoral and boundary arrangements were published on 25 March 2013.
