West Northamptonshire Joint Planning Unit
The Draft SHLAA (Strategic Housing Land Availability Assessment) is now published by the Joint Planning Unit (a partnership of Daventry District Council; Northampton Borough Council; South Northamptonshire Council; and Northamptonshire County Council) to seek additional information or evidence about the potential sites identified.
The SHLAA is NOT a plan for development, but simply a part of the technical evidence base required to inform the plan making process. Please click here to access the data. The data will be available for viewing and technical comment until 5.00p.m. on the 11th February 2010.
Please note that on 13/01/2010 we have added some new maps to make identification of potential sites easier. These can be viewed (and downloaded) on the next page (after clicking on the link in the paragraph above). Please note that these will open in a new window, and users can zoom in to see close detail.
