County Council
Local government is organised in different 'tiers'. In Kent
there are three tiers; the County Council, the District or
Borough Council, and the Parish or Town
Council.
Kent County Council covers
the whole of the county and is responsible for services such
as education (primary and secondary schools), highways (roads and
pavements) and social services. Kent works closely with
12 district councils, one unitary authority
(Medway Council) and more than 300
town and parish councils.
