Remember to register to vote for Potters Bar referendum

Remember you will need to be on the electoral register if you want to vote on whether or not Potters Bar should get a parish council.

If you are already on the register - you will be if you were sent a poll card for the local elections in May - you will automatically be sent a ballot paper in September.

If not, you will need to contact us for a registration form and return it to us before Friday 8 August.

There are two versions of the register – the full version and the edited version.  Your details must appear on the full version of the register which is only used by the council, and you can choose whether or not your details appear on the edited version which is sold and can be used for commercial activities such as marketing.

Residents of Potters Bar are being asked whether or not they want a parish council following the submission of two petitions to the council last year; one for and one against the establishment of a parish council.

For a voter registration form contact Electoral Services on 020 8207 7481 or email electoral.registration@hertsmere.gov.uk

Anyone who isn't registered to vote can still give their views to us; you can email pottersbarparish@hertsmere.gov.uk or write to:
