By the time you’re reading this the polling stations will have closed and the votes will have been cast for who will represent Wiltshire Council as a unitary councillor as well as the local city, parish and town councillors.
The counts and election of candidates will take place this afternoon (3 May) and we will know the makeup of the council for the next four years. Whatever the outcome, I would just like to take this opportunity to say thank you. A huge, heartfelt and personal thank you for the most incredible, challenging and inspirational four years.
As a new unitary council we have achieved so much; delivering significant savings, investing in key services, transforming how we work and where we work from; and, delivering the most forward thinking and innovative nationally acclaimed projects and programmes of work.
The council is well placed for the future and whilst there is still a lot to do, and many challenges ahead, the past four years have shown me that nothing is insurmountable, and by working together and with others we can, and have, achieved so much.
I have thoroughly enjoyed working with all of you and have found my role as leader both a privilege and an inspiration. I hope you don’t mind me taking this opportunity to acknowledge the great work you do and to say thank you for your unerring enthusiasm, hard work and commitment to delivering services that have improved the quality of life for so many in Wiltshire.
Jane.
