Temporary delay responding to enquiries

We are currently receiving a large number of enquiries about planning enforcement so it is taking us a little longer to respond to new cases. 

Your email has been received by our team if you have received an automated email response from planningenforcement@northyorks.gov.uk and we are working hard to respond to your enquiry as soon as possible. We apologise for any inconvenience and thank you for your patience.

Find out about planning enforcement in your area and how we deal with breaches of planning control. You can also find out how to report a breach and what formal action we take.

We have a duty to investigate complaints about development that may have been carried out without permission or consent.
