The Boston Borough Council Planning Committee met to discuss a planning application for land north of the Boston Borough Council Depot. Councillors approved the application, which involves demolishing an industrial shed and changing the land use to provide additional staff parking, commercial parking bays, and trailer bays, with associated works. The committee made revisions to conditions relating to archaeological investigations and surface water disposal, in light of the fact that some work had already commenced on the site.

The Boston Borough Council Planning Committee approved the construction of a retail unit on land south of Swineshead Road, including car parking and landscaping. The development, intended for a Marks & Spencer (M&S) food store, is subject to several conditions and a Section 106 agreement[^2] to mitigate its impact. Concerns were raised about traffic congestion, the location of bus stops, and the potential impact on the town centre, but ultimately the committee voted to approve the application.
