With 163,000 sign-ups processed and nobody turned away yet, the quieter concern is whether tighter enforcement will shift the problem from the tip to the roadside. North Yorkshire Council is also drawing up its [first-ever countywide local plan](https://www.thescarboroughnews.co.uk/news/politics/plan-to-deliver-4000-new-homes-a-year-across-north-yorkshire-8664699?ref=scarboroughinsider.co.uk), with a government target of 4,000 new homes a year across the county.
