Voting
During a proccess, when a number of options are available for spending the funds, we'll put it to a public vote. This is done via the Voting section.
To participate in the voting you must be signed up to MyGovScot MyAccount. If you've not done so already, you can register for one here: https://westlothiancouncil.communitychoices.scot/users/sign_up. Signing up gives you access to a wider range of council services including:
- MyWestlothian - provides customers with safe and secure portal - similar to online banking - where they can carry out a range of services such as reporting potholes, requesting additional bins, booking bulky uplifts and paying their Council Tax.
- Parentsportal.scot - provides parents with access to a growing suite of online services, including information about a child's education and transactions such as applying for placement requests, paying for school meals and other non-meal purchases.
