Yate Town Council is invited to comment on all planning applications within the Parish of Yate by South Gloucestershire Council planning, which has responsibility for making the final decision on whether to object or permit an application.

Yate Town Council provides bus shelters, litter bins, dog bins and seats throughout Yate. 

The Town Council provides a free children’s holiday playscheme every summer at Yate Parish Hall. The playscheme, administered by Childrens Playlink, operates craft and sporting activities and is very popular with local children aged between 5 - 11.

Yate Town Council promotes an active community in Yate by awarding grants annually to non-profit making organisations. These organisations work for the benefit of Yate parishioners, with the intention of improving the range of services and activities in the town.
