The council was under Conservative majority control prior to the election. Following the election the Conservatives remained the largest party but lost their majority, leaving the council under no overall control.[1]
An administration comprising the Conservatives and independent councillors subsequently formed, with Conservative leader Karen May continuing to serve as leader of the council.[2]
