What it is responsible for
Eastbourne Borough Council manages local services including:
• Council tax billing, payments and support schemes
• Rubbish, recycling and waste collection arrangements
• Housing applications, benefits and tenancy support
• Local planning applications and building control
• Licensing, environmental health and community safety
• Parks, open spaces and leisure facilities
• Local events, markets and town promotion
These responsibilities are distinct from the strategic services delivered by East Sussex County Council, such as education, transport and social care.
How it works
Councillors are elected to represent different wards across the borough and make decisions on local budgets, planning and community priorities. The council meets at Eastbourne Town Hall and operates a range of committees to oversee its services.
Contact & access
Residents and businesses can access services such as council tax payment support, housing needs advice, reporting issues and applying for licences via the council’s official website or by contacting the borough council offices.
