In 2005, the Government required that Local Authorities should ensure that all their Conservation Areas were appraised every five years so that they would have up-to-date Appraisals of what made them “areas of special architectural or historic interest”.
Since then, significant work has been undertaken towards achieving this goal and as at November 2008 more than two thirds have currently been completed.
The process of publishing these on the Website is ongoing and new entries should appear every three or four months until the process is completed.
All Appraisals available on the Website have been approved by East Riding of Yorkshire Council and will be used as background documents in support of the relevant Development Plan Document and as a material consideration in the determination of relevant planning applications.
