Disappointment with Cornwall City Council Decision
Hugo Rodrigues expresses disappointment with the decision to have a nine-member Cornwall city council, consisting of a mayor and eight councillors-at-large, starting in the 2026 election.
The decision not to have a directly elected deputy mayor may raise concerns among skeptics, notes Rodrigues.
The decision to go to a nine-member council without a directly elected deputy mayor is disappointing, and may provide fodder to skeptics.
- The new council composition will include a directly elected mayor and eight city councillors.
- The option to elect a deputy mayor, also known as acting mayor, was not chosen.
- The current practice of rotating the acting mayor or having an 'acting mayor of the month' will likely continue.
Author's summary: Cornwall city council's decision on its size and composition is disappointing.
