This is an election for district councillors.
Councillors represent the people of their ward on the council. Councillors are elected for four-year terms, and most wards have more than one councillor. This council elects one third of its councillors each year, which is why you may only have one vote.
District councils are responsible for many different services, including:
- Rubbish collection and recycling
- Housing and planning
- Sports facilities and public parks
Councils are funded by a combination of council tax, business rates, and grants from the UK government. Councillors are not paid a salary, but they do receive financial compensation and expenses to cover their time and travel commitments.
6 candidates stood in the Herongate, Ingrave & West Horndon ward.
