What is a Combined Authority?
A Combined Authority is a legally recognized body where a group of councils work together across a larger area. The York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority has been created by the City of York Council and North Yorkshire Council. Its role is to use some of the money and powers previously held by central government to invest in ways that will help to make York and North Yorkshire a better place to live, work, and do business.
Combined Authority Leadership:
The Combined Authority is led by an elected Mayor, currently David Skaith. The Mayor chairs the Combined Authority Board, which includes two councillors from the City of York Council, two councillors from North Yorkshire Council, and the Chair of the York and North Yorkshire Combined Authority Business Committee (advisory role).
