The local authority will now write to the DOI for its support
A motion at last night's Ramsey Commissioners meeting to merge the voting wards into one has been passed.
Commissioner Ffinlo Williams believes there is an unequal voting split in the town for local authority elections, which favours the north ward due to its bigger population.
Previous concerns were raised about the costs being doubled and for shrinking the board.
Mr Williams says the next step is for the Department of Infrastructure to support the decision:
Court orders return of property seized by police
Number of bus services cancelled or at risk today
Court to order election recount
Charity to connect elderly people with services at event
