Oakley Park and Peasdale Hill Appeal Hearings – adjourned

UPDATE FROM RAG, 26 JULY 2022

The Planning Inspectorate today adjourned the hearing for Oakley Park and the Land South of Oakley Park. Tomorrow’s hearing for Peasdale Hill has also been adjourned.

The reason for the adjournments is due to not all parties having all the documentation required to allow a fair hearing for all parties involved.

New dates are being scheduled with all parties which are likely to be in December. RAG will inform you of the confirmed dates upon receipt.

Dates have been set for the planning appeal hearings for the traveller sites at Oakley Park and Peasdale Hill. The appeals will be heard by Planning Inspector Sarah Dyer over two consecutive days with a potential third day available if required, as follows.

•  Tuesday 26 July, 10am – Oakley Park, appeals 1 and 2

•  Wednesday 27 July, 10am – Peasdale Hill

•  Thursday 28 July, 10am – spare date

All the appeals will be held in the Rockingham Suite, Best Western Rockingham Forest Hotel, Rockingham Road, Corby, NN17 2AE.
