Shrewsbury Town Council is the town council of Shrewsbury in Shropshire, established in April 2009 as part of structural changes to local government in England that abolished Shrewsbury and Atcham Borough Council and created in its place the unitary Shropshire Council. [1] Shrewsbury was previously unparished, with the Mayor of Shrewsbury and Atcham acting as the town's mayor. With a population of over 76,000, Shrewsbury is the fourth-most populous parish in England.
The town council provides horticultural services and is responsible for parks, sports pitches, recreation grounds, allotments and highway verges. The council also manages provision of the town market, community facilities, bus shelters, street lighting and public toilets. [2]
The town is subdivided into 17 wards, each of which returns one councillor to sit on the town council. Elections are held every four years, alongside Shropshire Council elections, using first-past-the-post. The wards are mostly coterminous with the Shropshire Council divisions created in 2009. [note 1]
Prior to 2009, the Mayor of Shrewsbury and Atcham Borough Council acted as Mayor of Shrewsbury. [3] The Mayor is elected annually for a one-year term alongside the Deputy Mayor. By convention the Deputy Mayor becomes Mayor the following year.
