Explanatory Note
(This note is not part of the Order)
This Order is made in accordance with section 58(2) of the Local Government Act 1972. It gives effect to proposals of the Local Government Boundary Commission for Wales (“the Commission”) which reported in September 2007 and September 2008 on its reviews of community boundaries in part of the County Borough of Wrexham. The Commission’s report dated September 2007 recommended changes to the boundaries of Abenbury, Acton, Broughton, Brymbo, Caia Park, Coedpoeth, Gresford, Gwersyllt, Holt, Isycoed, Marchwiel, Minera and Sesswick communities and consequential changes to electoral arrangements. The Commission’s report dated September 2008 recommended a change to the boundaries of Abenbury and Caia Park communities and a consequential change to electoral arrangements. This Order gives effect to the Commission’s recommendations in its 2007 report, except for the recommendation for the change to the boundary between the Communities of Abenbury and Caia Park, and it gives effect to the recommendations in the 2008 report without modification.
Prints of the maps showing the boundaries are deposited and may be inspected during normal office hours at the offices of Wrexham County Borough Council, The Guildhall, Wrexham LL11 1AY and at the offices of the Welsh Assembly Government at Cathays Park, Cardiff (Local Government Policy Division).
