Across the 555 applications Scarborough decided in the last 12 months, the median time from validation to decision was 56 days, and 51% were decided within 8 weeks. The UK median over the same period is 54 days.
What proportion of planning applications does Scarborough approve?

Where does this planning application data come from?
Every application on this page comes from Scarborough's public planning register (publicaccess.northyorks.gov.uk). Plota collects it, adds a map location and a category, and links each record back to the council's own entry, which is the authoritative version.
How often is this page updated?
Plota checks Scarborough's register every day and adds new applications, status changes and decisions as the council publishes them.
Where can I see the plans and documents for an application?
Plans, drawings and officer reports are held on Scarborough's own website. Where the council publishes a document list, it appears on the application's page here with each item linking to the council's copy; otherwise the "View original council record" link on every application opens the council's entry.

About this data

Plota holds 10,485 planning applications from Scarborough since 2016, each counted once: 1,083 current records, received since 11 May 2021, and 9,402 earlier ones in the Plota archive, searchable by location and keyword. 144 were received in the last 90 days. Current records are collected from the council's public register at publicaccess.northyorks.gov.uk and checked every day. Each record carries the council's reference, address, proposal, dates, status and decision, with a map location and Plota's classification by type and procedure added. The council's own record is the authoritative version; every entry here links to it.

Heads up: Scarborough hasn't published a new application since 20 Oct 2026 - 9 days ago. We've been checking daily and will surface new applications as soon as they appear on the council's portal.
