Three authorities share local government services in Haywards Heath: West Sussex County Council, Mid Sussex District Council, and Haywards Heath Town Council. Each authority has a different elected body, though some Councillors serve on more than one Council. The District has 10 Councillors who look after Haywards Heath, the County has three, and the Town has 16.
​
The Town Council has approximately 40 meetings throughout the year, usually held on Monday evenings. There are currently three Committees: Environment and General Purposes, Planning and Policy and Finance, and the meeting of the Full Council. All meetings are open to the public and press at 7:00 p.m. Residents are encouraged to attend meetings and may if they register by Midday on the day of the meeting, speak for three minutes on any subject on the Agenda prior to the start of the meeting.
​
Copies of the agenda for each meeting are published on the website and the Town Council's notice board (outside the Town Hall) before each meeting, and the minutes of each meeting are published on the website as soon as they are available. These are found in the individual section of each committee on this site.
