Hasland sits under two tiers of local government. Chesterfield Borough Council handles the everyday stuff close to home: bin collections, recycling and fly-tipping, planning applications, council housing, council tax billing, parks (Hasland Park, Eastwood Park), leisure centres, licensing (pubs, takeaways, taxis) and environmental health. Your three Hasland ward councillors sit on this council.

Derbyshire County Council looks after the bigger services that span the whole county: state schools and SEND, adults' and children's social care, highways (potholes, gritting, streetlights, A & B roads), libraries (including Hasland's mobile-library stop), Fire & Rescue, trading standards, public health and minerals/waste planning. The Hasland & Rother division of the county council is represented by Cllr Lewis Whitbread.

Rule of thumb: bins, planning, parks and the local high street = borough; schools, roads, social care = county. The Report a problem section flags which tier to contact for each common issue.
