The 2018 Redditch Borough Council election are scheduled to take place on 3 May 2018 to elect members of Redditch Borough Council in England.[1]
The election is to be held on the same day as the other United Kingdom local elections, 2018.
Background[edit]
Redditch Borough Council is one of the smallest councils to hold elections this year and ten of its 29 councillors are up for election.[2] The election comes with the Labour majority council being under criticism for "controversial" proposals for four new 'quarters' of Redditch, the demolition of the library and police station and the relocation of the borough's civic headquarters.[3]
Three sitting councillors are not re-standing at this election, while Conservative councillor Gay Hopkins (Headless Cross & Oakenshaw) was deselected by her party.[3]
