Stratford-on-Avon District Council election, 2003

The 2003 Stratford-on-Avon District Council election took place on 1 May 2003 to elect members of Stratford-on-Avon District Council in Warwickshire, England. One third of the council was up for election and the Conservative party gained overall control of the council from no overall control.〔〕
After the election, the composition of the council was
*Conservative 27
*Liberal Democrat 22
*Independent 3
*Labour 1
==Campaign==
Before the election the Conservatives were one seats short of having a majority on the council with 26 seats, as compared to 22 for the Liberal Democrats, 2 Labour and 3 independents. 16 seats were contested in the election with the Liberal Democrats defending the most seats.
Council tax levels were the major issue in the election with the Liberal Democrats attacking plans for a 58% increase,〔 which they said was mostly due to waste and poor decisions by the council.〔 However the Conservatives defended the rise, blaming it on an insufficient grant from the national government〔 and on the previous Liberal Democrat administration for using cash balances to keep levels artificially low.〔 The election also saw four independent candidates standing in Stratford wards in opposition to the council tax rise.〔
