Town councils have a number of powers including the provision of allotments, cemeteries, bus shelters, community centres, litter bins, open spaces, public buildings, public conveniences and recreation grounds, the repair and maintenance of public footways and the provision of public lighting.

Several of those are currently (mis) managed by LCC. I wonder if they will allow the devolution of things such as street lighting, after all it is only a couple of years ago they took control of our roads back off HBC.
