November 2023 Planning

Due to the fact there are currently 3 major developers wanting to build in the village, a New Local Plan for the Selby Area and a consultation for a New Local Plan for North Yorkshire, the Parish Council has decided a Planning Consultant will be employed to shape and deliver the observations on its behalf.

Residents are urged to still submit observations of their own with regards to planning applications.  You can submit comments (include the application reference number) via email: planningcomments.sel@northyorks.gov.uk

Parish Council objections to previous Manor Farm proposals: 2017  and August 2022

Gateforth Lane: Objections might highlight over-development in the village, too much development in a short time, lack of adequate infrastructure (highways, utilities and drainage, village amenities, healthcare facilities) and lack of investment into it, more vehicular movements at an already dangerous junction, use of all the sites allocated in the Selby Local Plan which is meant to be sufficient for 20 years.

You may also want to ask what do we, as a village get out of it (could we finally be permitted a pedestrian crossing for example?) or suggest changes the developer can make to improve how the development works for us as a village.
