WCC Local Government Reorganisation submission
Warwickshire County Council has set out a bold and forward-looking proposal for Local Government Reorganisation (LGR): the creation of a single unitary council for the whole county.
It delivers the strongest financial foundation, protects strategic countywide services and is the only model which meets the Government’s six criteria for LGR.
It brings decision making closer to communities, removes unnecessary complexity, and strengthens the ability to plan effectively for the long term.
Rugby Borough Council has confirmed its support for a single unitary council for Warwickshire, recognising that this offers greater financial benefits and significant positive opportunities for the whole county.
