ABOUT THE COUNCIL
We’re hard at work every day to change our Borough for the better
This is a new era for Basildon Council. We have always been an ambitious, striving place and we are determined to work at pace and with drive and purpose to build on the unique opportunities our economy, location, profile and history give us. That means a radically different Council, with a new leadership team working to deliver on the priorities of our residents.
Our priorities
A transformed and modernised waste collection service
01
Halving and all but eradicating the costs of temporary accommodation
02
Tackling the housing shortage in the Borough
04
Regenerating our town centres
05
A safer Borough for everyone
06
A Borough of aspiration and opportunity for our young people
07
Basildon town centre regeneration
Our town centre regeneration plan will bring forward the housing our borough needs as well as bring high-quality retailers back to Basildon. That means a modern food, beverage and leisure offer. It also means ensuring that we improve the parking, lighting, streetscape and security of our town centre so that people are safer in Basildon than they ever have been. We are underway with two major housing developments, together bringing nearly 700 homes to Basildon town centre.
