Committee

Planning Committee - Wednesday 11th June, 2025 7.00 pm

The North Northamptonshire Council Planning Committee met to discuss planning applications, including a new SEN [^1] classroom block at Greenfields Primary School in Kettering, a change of use for a property in Thrapston to a children's home, and a large logistics park also in Thrapston. Councillors approved the Thrapston children's home and were minded to approve the Greenfields Primary School application, but Sport England had objected to the school plans, so the application will be referred to the Secretary of State for a final decision. The committee also discussed a hybrid planning application for a logistics park in Thrapston, which is already subject to an appeal against non-determination.
