Leicester city council has decided to back a decision to elect a mayor for the city, in the face of criticism about the consultation process, according to an article in the Local Government Chronicle (LGC). 774 people responded to an online consultation, of whom 357 indicated support for the proposal and 344 opposed it. The new mayor will select up to 9 councillors to form a cabinet. LGC article (requires log-in) 4 January 2011
