In May this year, SSDC will have new councillors elcted. Under Liberal Democrat leadership, South Somerset District Council is renowned as a “Caring Council” putting people first. The priorities for the council will be the continuation and development of our current policies linked to the four factors that directly affect the quality of life for all our residents.

Health  -  without our health we have nothing

Homes -  a warm, dry, affordable home is a basic need for everyone

Jobs  -  having a secure job provides an income and self worth

Environment  -  the quality of where we live and the environment we live in is important to us all

Our Priorities for South Somerset District Council in delivering on our manifesto promises are:

1. to protect our front line public services
2. to maintain existing strong links with all our communities
3. to influence central Government and get a fair deal for South Somerset
