York and North Yorkshire Precept Survey 2026/2027
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.
The York and North Yorkshire Policing, Fire and Crime Team (PFC) is the link between the public and the Police and Fire services. The PFC works to ensure the Police and Fire Services are held accountable, and that the public’s questions and concerns are taken seriously.
The PFC also invests millions of pounds a year on key commissioned services for the local community, helping both to prevent crime and support those impacted by it.
The PFC ensures community needs are met effectively, setting objectives through the Police and Crime Plan and Fire and Rescue Plan.
Our key responsibilities:
-
- Public engagement
- Scrutiny of North Yorkshire Police and North Yorkshire Fire and Rescue service
- Making funding available to support communities to be and feel safe
- Commissioning services for victims to cope and recover after crime and to address the root causes of offending
The work of the PFC is set out in our Delivery Plan.
