Polling Districts and Polling Places

Stirling Council, like all local authorities, is required to undertake a statutory review of arrangements for polling districts and polling places every five years to ensure that suitable and accessible voting facilities are available to everyone.

 

They have been running a quick online survey as part of this review process over recent months, which they have been promoting on their social media channels. There are just over two weeks left to complete the survey with a closing date of 30 November.

What a Community Council is

Community councils are the most local tier of statutory representation in Scotland. They bridge the gap between local authorities and communities, and help to make public bodies aware of the opinions and needs of the communities they represent. It is a voluntary organisation, run by local residents to act on behalf of its area. 

Community Councillors represent local people, voice peoples’ views on important decisions which affect them and work with others to improve services. 

Councillors

Community Councillors are elected volunteers. Elections take place approximately every four years (dependent on local elections) where people are nominated to stand as new Community Councillors. If there are more nominations than places on the Community Council, a postal ballot takes place. The next Community Council elections will take place in 2023.

The Community Council meets on the first Wednesday of each month, currently via Zoom.  If you wish to attend please email the Secretary: cvdcc.sec@gmail.com
