It is a unitary authority, having the powers of a non-metropolitan county and district council combined. It is a member of the East of England Local Government Association. Politics{{see also|Southend-on-Sea local elections}}Seventeen wards each return three councillors, a total of 51. Councillors serve four years and one third of the council is elected each year, followed by one year without election. The current composition of the council is (as of 4 May 2018):{{fact|date=September 2018}}
Since the 2000 election the council has been run by a Conservative Administration, except for May 2014 - May 2016, where the council's administration was run by a rainbow coalition of Independent Group, Labour and Liberal Democrat councillors.[1]. On occasions the council has been in no overall control, but the Conservatives continued in administration apart from May 2014 - May 2016. PerformanceIn 2007, Southend Borough Council was criticised as one of the worst financially managed local authorities in England by the Audit Commission report for 2006/7, one of three to gain only one of four stars, the others being Liverpool and the Isles of Scilly.
