Larpool Lane cemetery in Whitby is part of £3m graveyard expansion plans on North Yorkshire's coast.
Scarborough Council has estimated that Whitby's cemetery will reach capacity in the next four years
Councillors supported the scheme after a report said the site, along with Lawns Cemetery in Filey and Woodlands in Scarborough, would be full by 2030. Though not a member of the committee, Mr Abbot, who represents the Whitby West Cliff ward, said Whitby residents should take the issue "in their hands and decide where they want the cemetery, not where Scarborough Council wants it."
