Clacks Council have approved plans to increase council tax by 5%.
The local authority has set out their spending plans for the year ahead.
They were facing a £10 million budget gap - and have increased council tax by 5%.
Meanwhile, a garden waste permit will now cost £45 a year.
Projects highlighted for the year ahead include the new Wellbeing Hub - which is expected to cost more than £55 million.
Council Leader Ellen Forson said: “We are making decisions which protect areas such as education, social work and health & social care which most people will understand.
“We are also mindful of the challenges faced by our communities, which is why tackling poverty and other social inequalities continues to be our top priority.
“We have not taken any decisions lightly, and in developing our budget for this year, we have listened closely to the feedback provided through the budget consultation process.”
