Residents in York, North Yorkshire, will be able to watch local decision-making in action this week as the City of York Council live-streams three separate committee meetings online. The broadcasts are part of an ongoing effort to make it easier for people to follow city business without having to travel to council offices in person.

The schedule begins on 10 March 2026 with a meeting of the Standing Advisory Council on Religious Education. This will be followed by the Audit and Governance Committee on 11 March 2026, and the Planning Committee on 12 March 2026.

Each meeting will be hosted on the council’s official YouTube channel to help improve transparency and accountability across the city. By using this platform, the local authority aims to help more people get involved in the democratic process and stay informed about updates that affect their neighbourhoods.

Along with the live video feeds, neighbours can look through meeting agendas, minutes, and other supporting documents on the council website. These materials provide extra context for the discussions and help residents follow along with the specific details of every decision being made.
