Results summary
An "all out" election was held in 13 wards on 6 May 1999.
This was the first Borough election since the 1998 Boundary Commission report that had reduced the council size from 14 to 13 wards and from 42 to 38 Councillors.
12 wards returned 3 Councillors, the smaller Rosedale Ward returned 2 Councillors.
With the exception of Hoddesdon Town Ward all of the remaining wards had experienced boundary changes since the last election in 1998.
The political balance of the new council following this election was:
- Conservative 33 seats
- Labour 5 seats
The 5 seats won by Labour proved to be their largest representation achieved under the 1999 boundaries.
