Flats, shops and offices: What area near you is being eyed up for development in Northampton?

The borough council has listed 80 plots of land across Northampton they have eyed up for development.

It comes after the borough's 'Local Plan Part Two' was published yesterday (July 13), which sets out how the council hopes to handle planning until 2029.

Read the full list of plots across Northampton that could be used for planning at the bottom of this article.

The borough council has been set targets of building 18,870 new homes and help towards creating 28,500 new jobs, as part of its contributions to the "West Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy".

However, the Local Plan yesterday also showed how the council was also set a housing target of 8,157 by the Strategy between 2011 and 2019 - a target that fell short of by 2,430.

Now, the council has listed dozens of sites that could be used for housing. If all of them were successful, they could yield 3,800 new homes.

The list began with a statement in the report that reads: "The Council will support the developments and proposals on these allocated sites, provided that they meet the requirements set out in the development management policies within this Plan."

However, as part of the Local Plan, the council is asking residents to flip through the 200-page-document and write back with legal challenges for any of the policies or plans they have proposed.

Cabinet member for planning James Hill said in a statement that "it’s not enough that people just don’t wish to see developments in their area."

"It is important to remember that the contents of the document can only be challenged on whether the plan is sound and legally compliant," said councillor Hill.

"Of course, some developments will be enthusiastically welcomed by those living nearby and we’re interested to hear that feedback too.

“We made radical changes to the plan based on comments we received during the last round of consultation so it is worth people also responding this time.”

It comes after the 'Local Plan Part One' in 2017, in which the council eyed up several hundred "spare" plots of land across the town and consulted on whether they could be used for developments. It ranged from grass verges on the ends of neighbourhoods to the entire former Greyfriars bus station area.

The consultation is available online at the borough council website and we will also have a dedicated terminal within the Guildhall One-stop Shop for those who don’t have the technology to access the documents at home.
