Council election results 2016   Residents candidates elected in Hinchley Wood and Weston Green………..Conservatives lose overall control of Elmbridge Council.                                                                                                                                  The votes were counted today (Saturday 7th May) in the Council election held on 5th May, with excellent results for results for Residents parties.                                                                                                     In Hinchley Wood and Weston Green, our three candidates were elected with over 80% of the votes cast, as follows:                                                 Tannia Shipley (Hinchley Wood/ Weston Green Residents’ Associations) 1950                                                                  Janet Rita Turner (Hinchley Wood/ Weston Green Residents’ Associations)         1906                      Nigel Haig-Brown (Hinchley Wood/ Weston Green Residents’ Associations)         1861               Charlotte Alexandra Sharman (Local Conservatives)                          465                    Martin George Fox (Local Conservatives)                          459                     Craig David Harrison (Local Conservatives)                          441                                                                                                                                                          We thank all those who supported the residents candidates to achieve this result.                                                                                                                                                           Across the Borough the Conservatives took 22 seats, Residents 19 and Liberal Democrats 7.  The Conservatives have therefore lost the overall majority they had on the previous (60-member) council, and Residents and Liberal Democrats will have the opportunity to form an administration.

Tannia Shipley, Nigel Haig-Brown and Janet Turner are all existing councillors with many years of experience between them in looking after the interests of our local community in Council affairs.  They look forward to the opportunity to continue serving the local community in the new ward of Hinchley Wood and Weston Green, which has been formed following a Local Government Boundary Commision review of Elmbridge Borough.
