Cllr Jeff Green has been elected as Wirral’s Civic Mayor and has pledged to do all he can to make the council as open and transparent as possible.
Cllr Green, who was first elected to Wirral Council in 1986, has been a Conservative councillor for 36 years. Making his first speech as Civic Mayor, a position with ceremonial functions which is not the same as council leader, Cllr Green said he was delighted to welcome people back to Wallasey Town Hall for the first meeting at the venue since the pandemic began.
Wirral Council’s meetings have taken place at New Brighton’s Floral Pavilion since in-person meetings were resumed last year as pandemic rules eased. Tonight’s meeting saw the return of council business to Wallasey Town Hall.
