Test Valley Borough Council looking for feedback on polling stations
Test Valley Borough Council (TVBC) is undertaking a review of Polling Districts and Polling Places. The review will consider the suitability of existing polling stations and possible alternative options.
TVBC is looking for feedback from any interested party that wishes to comment on any aspect of the polling districts, polling places and/or polling stations currently used. Electors within the borough are specifically entitled to make representations.
Anyone making comments on the suitability of existing or proposed polling stations are asked to suggest alternative stations, where possible.
They are also asked to provide their reasons, in order to help with the review.
The consultation period for the review formally commenced on 13 October 2023 and concludes on 24 November 2023.
The council would welcome any person or organisation with expertise in access for persons with any type of disability to make a representation or comment on the proposals.
Any feedback would help the local authority plan to make voting more accessible for all residents.
Information about the existing schedule of polling districts and polling places can be inspected at the offices of Test Valley Borough Council during normal office hours 08:30am – 5pm Monday to Thursday and 08:30am – 4:30pm on Friday.
