Minutes:

A report by the Director of Governance and Assurance and Monitoring Officer provided details of a change in relation to a polling place within Polling District ND in the Hoylake and Meols ward of the Borough and sought approval of a suitable alternative.

 

Members heard how the current polling place is Westbourne Community Centre, however, this venue would not be available for the forthcoming local elections due to a block booking opportunity. Members were informed that further to investigations for a suitable alternative venue, the proposed alternative would be West Kirby Methodist Church Hall. Members were advised that this venue had been used in the past and was accessible to all electors.

 

On a motion by Councillor A Hodson and seconded by Councillor B Davies it was -

 

Resolved (8:0) – That West Kirby Methodist Church (Westbourne Road) be designated as the polling place for polling district ND for all future elections.
