Nottinghamshire Live understands Labour councillors have been told about David Mellen's decision
David Mellen has announced he will not stand again to be Nottingham City Council's leader, Nottinghamshire Live understands. Every year, the Labour Group controlling Nottingham meets to decide who its leadership team will be for the next 12 months.
Speaking about Councillor Mellen's decision, a Nottingham Labour source said: "I don't blame the man. He's done a sterling job in the situation which he has been given."We're not focused as a group on who the next leader will be, because that's not what the city needs. What is important is that we work with the commissioners and get through this challenging period." An official announcement confirming the leadership news is due on Tuesday .
The news comes after Government commissioners were appointed for two years with sweeping powers over Nottingham City Council, which effectively declared bankruptcy last year. Asked previously whether he would be happy to serve as Nottingham City Council's leader under commissioners for two years, Councillor Mellen said: "I'm taking each day at a time really. The Labour group has an annual cycle of elections and there's a regular review of who is in what position.
