The aim of the research was to establish residents’ views about alternative patterns of unitary local government. Background to the Research In May 2003, the Government announced that a referendum would take place in autumn 2004 in the North East, North West and Yorkshire and the Humber regions on whether there should be elected regional assemblies. The Government indicated that, where a regional assembly is set up, the current two-tier structure of local government - district, borough or city councils (called in this report ‘districts’) and county councils - should be replaced by a single tier of ‘unitary’ local authorities. In June 2003, the Government directed The Boundary Committee for England (‘the Committee’) to undertake an independent review of local government in two-tier areas in the three regions, with a view to recommending possible unitary structures to be put before affected local people in a referendum at a later date. MORI was commissioned by COI Communications, on behalf of the Committee, to help it gauge local opinion. The research was in two stages. First, in summer 2003, MORI researched local residents’ views about local government and how they identify with their local community. These findings can be found at the Committee’s web site (www.boundarycommittee.org.uk) and MORI’s web site (www.mori.com). The findings were taken into account by the Committee in formulating its draft recommendations for consultation. The second part of the research, which took place in Stage Three of the Committee’s review, has been primarily concerned with residents’ reactions to the Committee’s preliminary proposals and the reasons for local people’s preferences. It is with the second part of the research that this report is concerned. Coverage of Main Research MORI undertook research in all 44 two-tier districts in the North East, North West and Yorkshire and the Humber regions. Within each district, at least 300 face-to-face interviews were carried out in-home, between 1 December 2003 and 23 February 2004. A total of 13,676 interviews took place across the three regions. 5 Additional Interviews In addition to the main research described above, the Committee also asked MORI to undertake further research where it considered it needed further evidence. This related to its reviews in Cheshire, Lancashire and North Yorkshire. First, in districts which the Committee identified may be split in the event of local government reorganisation, it asked MORI to interview additional respondents in order to gauge in more detail their views about options which would directly affect them. The districts were Selby (North Yorkshire), Crewe & Nantwich and Vale Royal (Cheshire), and Fylde, Rossendale, West Lancashire and Wyre (Lancashire). A total of some 2,000 additional interviews took place across these areas. This report is concerned with the surveys of residents in Selby district, North Yorkshire, and covers both the main research and the additional interviews. Further details of the approach taken in Selby is set out later in this Introduction. In addition, MORI was asked to interview a representative sample of some 300 residents in each of four single-tier councils adjacent to review areas - Sefton, Wigan, Wirral and York. Style Protocols in this Report We have adopted a number of protocols throughout this report: • Unless otherwise stated, reference is made to districts rather than towns. For example ‘Selby’ refers to the District Council area of that name, rather than to the town. • Two-tier borough, city or district council areas are referred to as ‘districts’. • The Boundary Committee for England is referred to as ‘the Committee’. • CC refers to ‘County Council’, BC to ‘Borough Council’, MBC to ‘Metropolitan Borough Council’ and DC to ‘District Council’. • An asterisk in a table or chart refers to a percentage between zero and 0.5. • Definitions of ‘social grade’, and ‘urban’ and ‘rural’ areas, are provided in Appendix 3. • ‘Review’ refers to the Committee’s review of local government. • Some figures in charts and tables, and in the marked-up questionnaires at Appendix 4, may not add up to 100%. Occasionally figures may also vary by 1%. In both cases, this is due to rounding. The definitive figures may be found in the computer tabulations provided under separate cover. • Base sizes have been given throughout this report. Where the base is under 50, considerable caution should be applied when making any inferences. 6 The North Yorkshire County Council Area The 7 This Report This report presents MORI’s findings in the Selby District Council area, North Yorkshire (in the Yorkshire and the Humber region). The Selby research had two components, each of which took place in-home, face to face, between 1 December 2003 and 23 February 2004. First, as part of the main research, 313 interviews took place across the district. Second, MORI undertook further interviews in two areas in the north of the district in order to bring the total number of interviews in each of those areas to around 200 (including the relatively small number of interviews which had already taken place as part of the main research). The two areas were: Tadcaster (the District Council wards of Tadcaster East and Tadcaster West) and North-east Selby (the District Council wards of Appleton Roebuck, Riccall with Escrick and North Duffield). In Tadcaster, MORI interviewed 30 residents as part of the main research, together with 180 interviews as part of the additional research, making a total of 210. In North-east Selby, we interviewed 19 residents as part of the main research, together with 188 interviewed as part of the additional research, making a total of 207. In this report we have often reported separately on the data from Selby district as a whole, Tadcaster and North-east Selby. When interpreting the data it is important to bear in mind that the additional interviews were organised as a separate survey from the main research. In each case, quotas were set by age, gender and work status using 2001 Census data. Data have been weighted back to the known demographic profile of each district by age, gender and work status. The methodology applied in this research, along with showcards showing the options put forward for consultation and marked- up questionnaires, are set out in the appendices to this report. The marked-up questionnaires reflect the findings as follows: • The main research in Selby as a whole (313 interviews); • Interviews in Tadcaster from the main research and the additional research (210 interviews); • Interviews in North-east Selby from the main research and the additional research (207 interviews). Full computer tabulations have been provided separately. County-wide reports for each county under review, and summary reports for each district, have also been provided under separate cover. 8 Publication of the Data As part of our standard terms and conditions, the publication of the data in this report is subject to the advance approval of MORI. This would only be refused on the grounds of inaccuracy or misinterpretation of the findings.

Other important factors are the need for accountability to local people and responding to local people’s wishes. These four factors are also the most important in both Tadcaster and North-east Selby though, in the latter case, residents place less priority on the cost of services. The Options • Respondents were briefed during the interview about the review of local government and shown cards setting out the main patterns of unitary local government on which the Committee consulted (Appendix 1). The options are: - Option A: a single unitary council covering the whole of the county. - Option B (four unitary councils): - Craven and Harrogate districts combined; - Hambleton and Richmondshire districts combined; - Ryedale and Scarborough districts combined; and - Selby district and East Riding of Yorkshire combined. - Option C (three unitary councils): - Craven and Harrogate districts combined; - Hambleton, Richmondshire, Ryedale and Scarborough districts combined; and - Selby district and East Riding of Yorkshire combined. - Option D (three unitary councils): - Hambleton, Ryedale and Scarborough districts combined; - Craven, Harrogate and Richmondshire districts combined; and - Selby district and East Riding of Yorkshire combined. Most Preferred Option • There are marked distinctions between Selby residents’ views on alternative patterns of unitary local government and those held in most of the rest of North Yorkshire. Overall, there is a preference in North Yorkshire for the Committee’s Option B: across the county, it is preferred by one in three residents.

  • Joint Position Statement Between the City of York and Selby District Council in Relation to the Housing Market Area, April 2020
    Joint Position Statement between the City of York and Selby District Council in relation to the Housing Market Area, April 2020 Introduction 1. This statement seeks to clarify the position agreed between the City of York Council and Selby District Council through the Duty to Co-operate in relation to the Housing Market Area. Specifically, the statement seeks to: provide further clarification that any links between York and Selby only extend to part of the Selby area and that this is considered to support the approach taken by the Councils through the Duty to Co-operate to meet their own objectively assessed housing needs within their own administrative areas; and to clarify that both Council’s continue to maintain the position reached through the Duty to Co-operate that through the preparation of the York Local Plan and its submission and more recently with the review of the Selby Local Plan that it is not practical to seek to align the preparation of the two Plans and to consider housing needs jointly across the HMA. Preparation of the Strategic Housing Market Assessment (SHMA) 2. The 2004 Act refers to a Local Planning Authority’s (LPA) ‘area’ and it is clear that the statutory duty for an LPA is and must be in relation to their area. Thus the primary duty of the LPA is to assess the needs of their local authority area. 3. Paragraph 47 of the NPPF (2012) requires Local Plans to meet the full objectively assessed need in the Housing Market Area (HMA). Paragraph 159 of the NPPF helps clarify this, in that it requires LPAs to have a clear understanding of housing needs ‘in their area’.

    North Yorkshire County Council Selby and Ainsty Area Constituency Committee – 11 June 2021 Update on Selby District Places and Movement Study 1.0 Purpose of the Report 1.1 To provide a progress report on the Selby District Places and Movement Study. 2.0 Update 2.2 The Selby Places and Movement study was commissioned in Summer 2020, jointly by NYCC and Selby District Council (SDC). The aim of the study is to consider how congestion could be reduced, how air quality could be improved and how the highway network might be adapted to support improved movement for all modes. In addition to this, the study also considers the place making agenda in the towns in question. 2.3 The study was commissioned covering the areas of Selby, Sherburn in Elmet and Tadcaster, and was funded by the YNYLEP, the NYCC major scheme development budget and Selby District Council. 2.4 A series of workshops, including elected members, officers and partner organisations have taken place at various stages throughout the process to allow dissemination of information and opportunity to input into options and make suggestions. 2.5 During the optioneering process, working in partnership with planning colleagues, it became apparent that work on the Tadcaster option would clash with Selby district local plan development options, therefore work on that particular element of the study was paused. Work on the Tadcaster elements of the study will resume once the local plan consultation has concluded. The funding that remained for the Tadcaster elements of the study has been diverted to additional modelling of the Selby options.

  • Housing Monitoring Report: Yorkshire
    Housing Monitoring Report: Yorkshire February 2021 Contents 2 Introduction The Northern Planning team constantly monitors the activities of local planning authorities to identify opportunities for clients. This monitoring report has been created to provide a snapshot of the current planning policy position for the local authorities in Yorkshire; alongside identifying local authorities where consultations on emerging planning policies are live or expected imminently. Based on the latest available documents we have also sought to identify the relevant five year housing supply position. The revised NPPF was updated in February 2019 and, alongside changes to the Planning Practice Guidance, reaffirms the Government’s intention to deliver 300,000 new homes per year by the mid-2020s. Local Plans are beginning to catch up with the Government’s objectives, but there is a long way to go. From 24 January 2019, local planning authorities who have not submitted their emerging strategic plans for examination will now have to address the housing delivery targets arising from the Government’s standard methodology. Equally, where strategic plans are more than five years old the standard methodology should be used for the purposes of calculating the five year supply of deliverable housing sites. The map below provides a summary of the current status of strategic plans across the region. The information included in this monitoring report is indicative and the best available at the time of publication. Due to the impact of COVID-19 the suggested timescales
