We are responsible for providing a wide range of public services to the people of North Yorkshire. We are made up of an elected assembly of 90 Councillors, with elections normally held every four years.
Our Councillors are elected democratically by the people of North Yorkshire. They are active at the heart of their local communities, listening to concerns and responding to the needs of the public to deal with issues that are important to where you live.
We also act as a champion for North Yorkshire and its people. We represent and promote the interests of our county in the wider North East region, in the whole of the United Kingdom and abroad.
We work closely with a range of partners and organizations to support the people and businesses of North Yorkshire.
