This report presents the findings of the Community Governance Review’s Phase 1 consultation regarding the creation of Civil Parishes and associated Parish Councils in the Borough of Epsom and Ewell. It also provides information related to the potential financial implications, including estimated precepts and the implications of the possible transfer of key community assets.

Members of the Council are asked to review this information and make a decision as to whether the Council proceeds to the next stage of its Community Governance Review (CGR), or whether the CGR process is stopped now following the completion of the Phase 1 consultation. If Members decide to continue to the next stage of CGR, they are invited to consider what the recommendations should be that are consulted upon, based upon the outcome of the Phase 1 consultation and the further information contained within this report.
