Ripon is set for good growth thanks to the development plan set out by the local government. This includes creating more affordable housing and the redevelopment of the military estate, which will incorporate the creation of a new urban village featuring business, education and leisure amenities and have a focus on renewable energy.
North Yorkshire county council currently spends an estimated £350 million every year, offering good potential opportunities for local businesses. This includes both capital and revenue, with investments in a wide variety of different products and services, and accounts for both long-term contracts with suppliers as well as one-time purchase agreements.
