  • Corby in Its Own Words
    Corby in its own words Mary Hodgson, Claire Gordon, Nicola Bacon November 2018 Introduction This report is part of Bright Future, a project focused on industrial towns across Europe.1 In this project we’re working with a simple idea: that the common account of ‘post-industrial’ towns and their inevitable decline we find in newspapers and reports isn’t the whole picture. While a quarter of the European population live in them, industrial towns are often overlooked because of this limited viewpoint. We believe that they have a huge amount to offer. Their industrial qualities mean that people who live and work in them can share particular skill sets and characteristics as part of their heritage. Industrial towns may also have other assets in their townscapes, traditions and communities we should recognise. We think that we should work harder at understanding the experience of industrial towns, and listening to the needs and ideas of those living in them. There could also be different approaches to development for these places, distinct from those taken by larger towns and cities. These need to be considered and developed. In this short report we present a summary of the conversations we’ve had in the last year, speaking with residents and community organisations about the town. We’ve summarised general ideas and perceptions that people have shared with us on Corby. As with almost any place, people have different opinions about where they live, but some clear themes emerged from our work. About the project Bright Future is an ESRC-funded project in association with JPI- Europe, working with people in small and medium industrial towns in Europe to explore their socioeconomic characteristics, qualities and underlying resilience.

    Open Decision Item LOCAL PLANS COMMITTEE 3rd February 2015 North Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy Review SYNOPSIS This report provides an update to Members on the North Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy Review 1.0 Background 1.1 The Joint Core Strategy (the ‘Part 1’, strategic part of the Local Plan) will provide the strategic framework for growth and development in North Northamptonshire. It will deal with cross boundary issues such as strategic development, infrastructure priorities, housing and employment need and improving the environment. It will also provide the context for more local ‘Part 2’ Plans to make further non-strategic land allocations and more detailed policies for implementation and development control, where necessary. 1.2 The Joint Core Strategy is the responsibility of the North Northamptonshire Joint Planning Committee set up by the Secretary of State in 2005. This is made up of three members from each of the partner authorities. The Joint Planning Committee is supported by officers at the Joint Planning Unit who are managed through a Steering Group of the Chief Planning Officers from the councils. These arrangements ensure that the emerging plan reflects local priorities and objectives that contribute to the delivery of the Councils corporate plan. 2.0 Update 2.1 Since the last progress report to members, the Joint Planning Committee at its meeting on the 18th December 2014 agreed the Pre-Submission Draft Joint Core Strategy for consultation, subject to minor amendments and final editing which was delegated to the Head of the Joint Planning Unit in consultation with the CPO Steering Group and the Chairman and Vice Chairman of the Joint Planning Committee.

  • Northamptonshire
    Northamptonshire “The best place in England to grow” Foreword I am pleased to introduce the Sustainable Communities Strategy for Northamptonshire. It describes our vision and ambitions for a place which is set to develop faster than anywhere else in the country over the next 15 years. Managing this change will be a big challenge. There are many potential benefits from more housing and more jobs, but there will also be more pressure on our environment, our road network and our public services. Northamptonshire is a classic example of a shire county, with its ancient heritage and mix of market towns, peaceful villages and beautiful countryside. It has a major town, Northampton, at its heart. It is extremely well-placed geographically, being close to London and with good transport links to all parts of the country. It is no wonder that it is set to grow so fast when it has such obvious attractions for people and for businesses. This strategy has been prepared by public service organisations in Northamptonshire, and with input from residents of the county. It sets out how public, private and voluntary organisations plan to work together to deliver and benefit from the proposed growth within the county and influence economic-investment decisions within the East Midlands. It also describes how we plan to deal with the deprivation and lack of access to services that already exist in some parts of the county, to make sure that everyone has a high quality of life. Northamptonshire has sometimes been known for underperforming public services. We want to use the aims of this strategy, and work together to change this in the future.
