THE future of a controversial skatepark is hanging in the balance after councillors decided to visit the site visit before making a decision.
The park, in Kirkbymoorside, was built last year on the town's playing fields using £70,000 of Lottery money.
Ryedale District Council has received three complaints from people living nearby about noise from the park.
They have called for it to be closed and moved elsewhere.
Council officials investigated their concerns and found that planning permission for the equipment was never given.
Members of the council's planning committee met on Tuesday night to discuss the alleged breach of planning control.
They voted to visit the site tomorrow before making a decision at the next committee meeting.
