This governance structure may influence planning applications and local development initiatives in the area. The council is currently led by David Ross (Labour), who has held the position since 20 February 2014. Ken Gourlay serves as Chief Executive since July 2023.
The council area encompasses 251 towns and villages, including Anstruther Easter, Anstruther Wester, Auchmuirbridge, Auchtermuchty, Buckhaven and Burntisland. Use the planning application search above to find proposals across these communities by postcode.
