  • Northampton Local Plan
    CASTELLO FORTIOR CONCORDIA NORTHAMPTON BOROUGH COUNCIL NORTHAMPTON LOCAL PLAN 1993-2006 ADOPTED JUNE 1997 WRITTEN STATEMENT Indicating Saved Policies as amended by the Secretary of State for Communities and Local Government September 2007 David Moir Director of Environment Services June 1997 FOREWORD Northampton is rapidly developing town - fortunate in having within its boundary a blend of old and new. It combines a historic town centre, former village communities, modern housing areas and a diverse range of employers with parks and open spaces which extend right into the heart of the town. It is an environment of which we are proud. Almost thirty years ago Northampton was designated a new town and under the auspices of the Development Corporation, Northampton expanded significantly through the implementation of the Northampton Master Plan. The momentum of growth remains, but it is important to ensure that future development adds to the quality of the environment in Northampton. The adopted Local Plan forms the basis for all decisions relating to land use within the Borough. It reflects many comments and representations made during its preparation as well as taking on board the recommendations of a Planning Inspector appointed by the Department of Environment following a Public Inquiry into remaining objections. The Plan aims to guide the further expansion of Northampton. It seeks to conserve important open spaces, encourage a balanced mix of residential, business and leisure development and promote good sustainable transport initiatives. In essence it seeks to produce an environment which enhances Northampton for the benefit of all. In conclusion, I wish to pay tribute to the late Councillor Roger Alder who steered the Plan through the majority of its stages as chair of the Planning Committee.
