In agreement with Torpoint town council, public consultations are now under way on a proposal to split the town into two wards for parish electoral purposes.

This will mean that a number of councillors would be appointed to represent each of the proposed two wards at future town council elections.

All electors in Torpoint have been sent a letter and map detailing the proposals, and large scale maps are on display on the town council's notice boards and at the Trevol Community Centre.

Representations from all interested persons should be sent to the elections officer at Caradon District Council by March 31.
