Adderbury - May 2020
Following the submission of a Community Governance Review petition from West Adderbury Residents Association, full Council have been asked to set up a working group to look at the request to split the existing parish into two separate parishes.
The report was considered at the meeting on 20 May 2020, and all recommendations were approved. The recommendations included setting up a working group, and approving the timetable for the review, which will be completed by February 2021. The terms of reference give more details about the process of the review.
There will be two formal consultation stages during the review. The first one ran from Monday 29 June through to Friday 28 August. Every household in Adderbury received a consultation document through the post, which provided more information about the request to separate the parish.
Second consultation - November 2020
The second consultation stage ran from Monday 2 November 2020 to Monday 4 January 2021. Every household in Adderbury received a consultation document through the post.
The Working Group will now meet to discuss the responses.
- Read the second stage consultation letter
- See the map with two possible ward boundary locations
- Potential electorates for each ward - added on Thursday 26 November 2020, following a query from a resident. If two wards were created, and the boundary between them was the Sor Brook, ‘West’ Adderbury would have an electorate of approximately 690, and ‘East’ Adderbury approximately 1750.
If the ward boundary were to be the A4260/Oxford Road, ‘West’ Adderbury’s electorate would be approximately 991, with ‘East’ Adderbury approximately 1449
