Sadly the wards of Weddington and St Nicolas Wards need to be split into three and a bit new wards due to all the additional population in the North East of Nuneaton.
The Boundary Commission has required that there is a full review of the borough ward boundaries.
My proposals, on behalf of the Green group, attempt to keep all the wards as close to the 2012 arrangements as possible. Two new wards are to be created which I have called Watling and Eastboro. Some other ward boundaries have been tweaked to equalize the size of electorates as much as practical.
I would propose keeping all the existing ward names except Kingswood which I would like to be renamed Stockingford to match the school and the railway station that I am pushing for reopening.
