Question:
Why did the council disregard the Vote of the people, when we voted for Bexhill’s own town council. (11/09/2018)
Answer:
Rother District Council undertook an extensive Community Governance Review of Bexhill-on-Sea in 2017; all documentation and the final recommendation made by the Council can be found at the Community Governance Review page
The final recommendation document provides a very good summary of the process and the rational for the decision. Please note however, that there was no vote – this was a consultation exercise open to all residents, including under 18s and non-residents to express their views and preferences. (12/09/2018)
