South_Cambridgeshire_District_Council_elections
South Cambridgeshire District Council was created as part of the 1972 local government reforms. The first elections to the new authority were held in the year 1973. From 1978 until 2016, one third of the council were elected each year, followed by one year without a poll. Since 2018, all members of the council are elected at once in a so-called 'all-out' election, after a decision made in 2015.[1]
