Leyland and Farington will remain separate
A controversial decision to bind together Farington and Leyland has been reversed more than four years after it was taken.
The hubs – then known as community forums – are arenas for dealing with local issues and they also have access to a collective £25,000 annual cash pot to fund projects for the areas they cover. The boundary changes four years ago sparked criticism from the Conservative opposition and now the authority – still Labour-controlled after this year’s elections – has voted to reinstate the previous arrangements, which will see the return of a “central” area hub..
Meanwhile, Cllr Colin Sharples – the Labour member for Earnshaw Bridge – said that the Leyland hub of which his ward was a part had, in its 2019 guise, been “large and difficult to administer”, having incorporated nine wards in total.
