Current composition
Cirencester Town Council is elected every four years. The Liberal Democrats won 115 of the 16 seats on Cirencester Town Council at the 2019 Local Elections.

Many of the Town Councillors also serve on Cotswold District Council (8 out of 16) and two Councillors also serve on Gloucestershire County Council. [1]
