ITEMS FOR DETERMINATION (A) N/2011/1184- VARIATION OF CONDITION 3 TO PLANNING PERMISSION N/2011/0215 TO CHANGE THE OPENING TIMES TO OPEN 24 HOURS AT LINGS LOCAL CENTRE, BILLING BROOK ROAD Councillors N Choudary and Mason left the meeting in accordance with their earlier declarations of interest given at minute 4 above. The Head of Planning submitted a report in respect of application no. N/2011/0215, elaborated thereon and in answer to a question commented that if the Committee were minded to approve the application it was suggested that the extension of hours would apply for a 12 month period in the first instance (proposed condition 1) and the applicant would need to apply again if they wanted to make this permanent. Mrs Johnston, the Secretary of Brookside Hall Community Association, asked that the Committee approve the application without restriction as she understood that the consent could be revoked at any time. She commented that the Community Centre was not licenced and that it was a community facility and that the 24 hour opening was only needed occasionally. In answer to a question Mrs Johnston stated that the Pentecostal Church and the Tabernacle Outreach Church had made requests to have services at 23.00 hours. In answer to questions the Head of Planning clarified that the application for 24 hour opening only referred to the taxi office and the community centre and not to the other uses on the site; that the reason behind suggesting a temporary consent was so as to be able to assess how use of the Community Centre worked out in practice and that proposed condition 5 prevented the use of public address systems or amplified music beyond the existing hours of operation. The Committee discussed the application. Councillor Hibbert proposed and Councillor Hallam seconded “That the application be approved but that condition 1 be amended to allow the temporary use for a six month period.” Upon a vote the motion was carried. RESOLVED: That the application be approved subject to the conditions set out in the report and as amended in respect of Condition 1 to allow the temporary use for a six month period, as the proposed variation of condition would have a neutral impact upon the amenities of neighbouring properties and would support the 3 3 Planning Committee Minutes - Tuesday, 26 June 2012 continued use of the property as a community centre. The proposal was therefore in compliance with the requirements of the National Planning Policy Framework.

Project Angel Plans were approved in May 2014 to transform derelict land in the heart of Northampton into a new iconic headquarters and office building for Northamptonshire County Council, saving tax payers millions of pounds and generating a massive cash injection to the town centre economy. The building is due to open in autumn 2016 and bring 2,000 workers back into the town centre and the sod cutting ceremony took place on 10th February. University of Northampton In 2012, the University of Northampton announced plans to build a new single-site campus in the Enterprise Zone to capitalise on the links with research and innovation in technology. Plans were approved in July 2014 and the new campus is due to open in 2018. Work commenced in December 2013 on a new Innovation Centre opposite the Railway Station which will provide premises for up to 60 small and start-up businesses and enhance the Enterprise Zone offer for the town. The Innovation Centre will open this spring.

  • 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.

    Lucy Staves From: Ann Plackett < > Sent: 07 June 2016 16:26 To: Planning Policy Cc: Sue Biddle Subject: Comments on the Local Plan Review Issues Report from the Town Centre Conservation Areas Advisory Committee Attachments: TCCAAC Local Plan Issues May 16.pdf Importance: High Please find the comments from the Committee attached. Regards, Ann Plackett (Secretary) R m m Virus-free. www.avast.com 1 Comments from the Northampton Town Centre Conservation Areas Advisory Committee on the Northampton Local Plan Review Issues Report The Northampton Town Centre Conservation Areas Advisory Committee Terms of Reference set out its main purpose as being 'to encourage the preservation and enhancement of the special historical and architectural character of Northampton's town centre conservation areas'. This includes advising the local planning authority on planning applications affecting the conservation areas and identifying where actions have been taken that detract from the character of the conservation areas, e.g. planning breaches. The Committee would be happy to discuss with the Local Plan team, possible policies for the conservation and enhancement of the town centre conservation areas. Our comments on the Issues Report are set out below. Q1. What are the main issues relating to housing delivery, mix and affordability which the Local Plan (Part 2) should consider? The Local Plan (Part 2) will not be reviewing the number of new homes that is already identified in the adopted Joint Core Strategy. And Q3 Do you think that we need a mix of market housing e.g. family homes, housing for single households In the town centre the main issue is the lack of a good mix of different types of housing to support a diverse community, in terms of age, household size, wealth etc.
