David Skaith, the Mayor for York and North Yorkshire, is asking for your views before setting the amount that goes to North Yorkshire Police and, separately, to North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service from your council tax bill. This is known as a Precept.  

The Mayor has to balance council tax increases against the growing demands for both emergency services. Addressing years of underinvestment in North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue Service is a high priority for the Mayor.

Any increase in funding must be thought through carefully. Before setting the levels of precept for the two services, the Mayor would like to know your views on the possible options.

·       The survey will take no longer than 7 minutes to complete.

·       The survey will close at 10am on Monday 20th January 2025.
