Decision details

To seek approval for submission of the consultation response to the Retrofit Strategy, led by the York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority.

Following approval of the draft Retrofit Strategy consultation response, detailed in Appendix B of the report, submission of the report to the York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority (YNYCA) is delegated to the Assistant Director – Environment and Transport.

To ensure North Yorkshire Council's feedback is considered for the final version of the Retrofit Strategy.

The alternative option would be not to submit a consultation response to the YNYCA. Participation in the consultation provides an opportunity to ensure that North Yorkshire Council can contribute to shaping future devolution of retrofit delivery which provides opportunities to make houses warmer and more energy efficient, which is in support of NYC Council Priorities.
