This was the fourth election to the district council following the local government reforms in the 1970s. The election was the first to use the 16 wards created by the Initial Statutory Reviews of Electoral Arrangements in 1980 – an increase of one from the previous arrangements. Each ward elected one councillor using first-past-the-post voting.https://webarchive.nrscotland.gov.uk/web/20190111180218/http://www.lgbc-scotland.gov.uk/reports/eareports1st.asp Initial Statutory Reviews of Electoral Arrangements Local Government Boundary Commission for Scotland 29 December 2023 Labour maintained control of the district council after winning 14 of the 16 seats – an increase of two – and taking more than half of the popular vote.
