Parish Council Grouping Order Request Agreed by SCDC

South Cambridgeshire District Council met on Thursday 24th November to consider the request from the Histon and Impington Parish Meetings, held on 14th  October, to combine the Parish Councils into a Common Council in 2012.

They RESOLVED:

(a) the making of a Grouping Order to group the Parish Councils of Histon and Impington; and

(b) to delegate to the Chairman of the Electoral Arrangements Committee, in consutlation with officers and the two parish councils, to finalise the wording of the Grouping Order

There is a lot of work to be done yet, but it is hoped the actual grouping of the Councils will co-incide with the normal end of year for Council business in April/May 2012

The Parish Councils wish to thank everyone who took time to give valued input to the process

Make Sure Your Vote is Safe

Secure your vote next year by returning your electoral registration form by 30 November - that's the message for South Cambridgeshire residents.

A huge 96.32% of households in the district have returned their form, but the small number that haven't need to reply by Wednesday 30 November, or they may not be able to vote in next year's local elections.

South Cambridgeshire District Council has sent two reminders to each home that has not registered. Council representatives have also been out in the district, visiting households to encourage people to complete and sign the paperwork.

If details haven't changed, forms can be confirmed quickly and easily using a freephone number, internet or text messaging service - details are on the form. These options close on Friday 25 November, but posted forms will still be accepted up until next Wednesday.

Jean Hunter, South Cambridgeshire District Council chief executive and electoral registration officer, said:

"Our return rate this year is already higher than last year's total, but just over 2,000 households still haven't sent back their form. We don't want anyone to lose their voice at election time, so secure your vote by returning your form."
