Harborough District Councils Local Plan Approved: Thousands of New Homes, Shops, Schools, and Roads in Leicestershire The Harborough District Council in Leicestershire has approved its local plan, which includes thousands of new homes, shops, schools, and roads. The plan, which guides all future development in the area, has been met with controversy, particularly regarding a proposed site south of Gartree Road, set for around four thousand homes. Despite pushback from local residents and Conservative councillor Phil King, the council voted to send the plan to the government for review by a planning inspector.
