About

The Strategic Planning Committee is responsible for making decisions on significant planning applications and acting as a statutory consultee for major infrastructure projects in North Yorkshire. It handles applications related to minerals, waste, energy, and physical infrastructure, particularly those requiring an Environmental Impact Statement or involving over 500 houses. The committee also considers applications that depart from the adopted Development Plan or raise strategic issues affecting multiple areas. It plays a key role in development management, with provisions for public speaking by applicants, objectors, parish councils, and local councillors at its meetings.
