In June this year we carried out a consultation which invited comments on the proposed change from elections by thirds to whole council elections once every four years, sixteen representations have been received - four in support of whole council elections, and twelve wishing the council to retain elections by thirds.
A report will be submitted to a Special Meeting of the Council on 5 November 2008 to consider passing a resolution (which must be passed by at least a majority of two-thirds of the members voting) to move from elections by thirds to whole council elections.
Anyone wishing to make further representations should write to The Chief Executive, Amber Valley Borough Council, PO Box 15, Town Hall, Ripley, Derbyshire, DE5 3XE by not later than 12 September 2008.
