Corby
All local authorities are required to produce a Local Plan with the
aim of providing a more flexible planning system that adapts to changing
priorities and which seeks to secure sustainable development.
The Local Plan sets out how we will plan the future development of Corby. It will guide new developments to appropriate locations, while protecting our natural environment and built heritage.
The Local Plan is shaped by the National Planning Policy Framework - the top tier of planning policy. The Framework provides guidance to local authorities and other agencies on planning policy and the operation of the planning system. It covers issues such as housing, green belts, economic growth, heritage, sustainable development, biodiversity, transport, waste management and open space, sport and recreation.
The Local Plan for the Borough is made up of two documents- The North Northamptonshire Joint Core Strategy (adopted July 2016). More information can be found on the North Northamptonshire Joint Planning Unit website
- The Part 2 Local Plan for Corby. More information can be found on the Part 2 Local Plan for Corby webpage
