The role of Basildon Council is to make decisions in the community's best interests. It is important that you, as residents of the borough, have a say in those decisions and are able to put across your opinions on issues that directly concern you and your community.
This area of the site explains how you can get involved in those decisions, how you can vote, and how you can contact your councillor, MP or MEP.
You can get news here too and stay up to date with everything that's going on within the council. This includes election results, committee decisions and policy changes.
You can also:
find out when committees meet and what they discuss
read about review committees and how they help to improve council services
understand why we pay council tax and where that money goes
