I have enclosed my comments on the final PER recommendations for the City of Sheffield District Council periodic electoral review. I have enclosed extract maps illustrating the areas where I recommend changes from the final report. These maps are based on the maps supplied with the final PER report.

In general, the report makes as good a set of recommendations as can fit Sheffield with the current population and legislation constraints. I have limited myself to making the following three recommendations:

1: Align Walkley/Hillsborough boundary along Holme Lane, Bradfield Road and Owlerton Green.

2: Minor adjustments to exact track of boundaries in vicinity of Crookes Sports Ground, Endcliffe Park and Derbyshire Lane.

3: New ward names of "City Centre" and "Manor & Castle".

Thank you.
