Ballot boxes are being placed in key locations across Liverpool in a bid to encourage people to have their say on how the city is governed.
Boxes placed by Liverpool Council at One Stop Shops and libraries throughout the city that will offer users the chance to make their voices heard on the three proposed models of running Liverpool moving forward. A total of three options have been put forward - leader and cabinet model, committee system, or maintaining the Mayoralty.
Despite being deemed too expensive, a formal referendum on the plans could still be held, should a petition of 5% of electors is presented to the council asking for a vote on whether to change the governance model. Letters began landing on doormats in the city last month, providing a secure online link for households to take part in the consultation process which runs until 20th June.
