The consultation period runs from 12 August until 27 September and residents, organisations, and individuals with expertise in accessibility are invited to contribute their views on the current arrangements.
Submissions must be made in writing to Jeff Chalk at the Electoral Services Office or via email at electoral.services@exeter.gov.uk by the closing date.
