All council meetings in Harrogate and North Yorkshire will be cancelled next week.
Following the death of the Queen, Harrogate Borough Council has decided to suspend its meetings calendar "as a mark of respect".
Its audit and governance committee meeting on Monday and planning committee on Tuesday have been postponed.
Meetings for the leader and cabinet on Wednesday will also be held at a later date, along with the general purposes committee and a meeting of the cabinet member for housing and safer communities the following day.
Rescheduled dates are yet to be announced.
A book of condolence has been opened at the civic centre in St Luke's Mount, Harrogate. It will be available to be signed until 4.30pm today, 8.30am to 5pm Monday to Thursday next week and 8.30am to 4.30pm next Friday.
The council has also said floral tributes can be left on the grass in front of the war memorial opposite Bettys. Some have already begun to appear this morning.
