The Consultation
This consultation seeks to gather the views of individuals and groups currently on the legacy council’s registers, parish and town councils and Division Members (where there is no parish/town council) on the proposals to:
1. Introduce a local connection test for inclusion on Part 1 of the register. This requires a person to be a resident or have a proven connection with North Yorkshire as set out in the report (link above); and to
2. Introduce a fee of £123 for inclusion on Part 1 of the register.
Please note that the if a person has already paid a fee for inclusion on one of the former Self-build and Custom Housebuilding registers they will be exempt from paying this fee.
