(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order makes changes to electoral arrangements for the district of West Devon, which is a non-metropolitan district with borough status, following recommendations made by the Local Government Boundary Commission for England. The area of the district remains unchanged. The electoral changes apply in respect of local government elections to be held on and after the ordinary day of election of councillors in 2015.
Article 3 abolishes the existing wards of the district of West Devon and replaces them with 18 new ones. That article, the map (as defined in article 2) and the Schedule also establish the names, areas and number of councillors of the new district wards.
Articles 4 to 6 abolish the existing wards of the parishes of (i) Okehampton, (ii) Okehampton Hamlets and (iii) Tavistock respectively and replace them with new ones. Those articles and the map also establish the names, areas and number of councillors of the new parish wards.
The map defined in article 2 shows the new district and parish wards. It is available at http://www.lgbce.org.uk/current-reviews/south-west/devon/west-devon-fer. The map is also available for inspection at all reasonable times at the offices of West Devon Borough District Council, Kilworthy Park, Drake Road, Tavistock, Devon PL19 0BZ and at the offices of the Local Government Boundary Commission for England at Layden House, 76 – 86 Turnmill Street, London EC1M 5LG.
