Our starting point for a vision for the next Local Plan is:
“The North York Moors will be a resilient landscape at the forefront of addressing climate change and nature recovery where development is carefully managed to conserve and enhance the National Park’s special qualities. The Local Plan will guide sustainable development that delivers a biodiverse, beautiful and varied place that’s proud of its cultural heritage and which lifts the nation’s health and well-being. It will be a place with a diverse, innovative, low carbon economy and home to thriving, welcoming local communities.”
