Шаблон:Use dmy dates Шаблон:Infobox legislature Blackrod Town Council is a local authority with limited powers and covers the town and civil parish of Blackrod in the Metropolitan Borough of Bolton, Greater Manchester, England. It is made up of nine town Councillors representing three electoral Wards.
Precursor
Blackrod was once a township in the civil parish of Bolton le Moors in the historic county of Lancashire, England.[1]
Under provisions of the Poor Relief Act 1662, townships replaced civil parishes as the main units of local administration in Lancashire.[2] Blackrod became one of the eighteen autonomous townships of the civil parish of Bolton le Moors.[3][1] The township appointed overseers of the poor who levied a rate to fund the Poor Law. Highway surveyors were also appointed and funded from the rate to maintain the roads. In 1866, Blackrod's status was elevated from a township to a civil parish.[4][5]
A resolution for the adoption of the Local Government Act 1858 was passed on 9 May 1872 by the owners and ratepayers of the civil parish of Blackrod,[6] and resulted a local board was created to provide for the water supply and drainage of the town.[1][7] After the Public Health Act 1875 was passed by Parliament in that year, Blackrod Local Board assumed extra duties as an urban sanitary district, although the Local Board's title did not change.[8]
Following the implementation of the Local Government Act 1894, Blackrod Local Board was transformed into an elected urban district council of nine members.[1] Blackrod Urban District Council had three electoral wards: Central, North, and South, each represented by three councillors.[9]
Under the Local Government Act 1972, Blackrod Urban District was abolished on 1 April 1974 and its former area became a successor parish in the Metropolitan Borough of Bolton in Greater Manchester.[10][11]
Wards and Councillors
Since 1974, Blackrod is served by a Town Council, which is divided into three Wards, each represented by three Town Councillors.[12]
