West Seaton will become part of Beer & Branscombe district ward, says Boundary Commission
This proposal has been approved, despite opposition from Seaton Town Council and the West Seaton and Seaton Hole Association representing residents in the area which will become part of Beer & Branscombe ward from the 2019 EDDC elections.
The Boundary Commission for England argued that Seaton will have too many electors, and therefore to equalise the voters:councillors ratio, some part of the town needed to be hived off from the existing 3-member ward. Since no one put forward an alternative carve-up, the Commission stuck to its original plan.
