MINUTES OF THE MEETING OF THE PLANNING COMMITTEE OF

THE COUNCIL HELD ON WEDNESDAY 15 SEPTEMBER  2010

PRESENT: Cllrs C Dalton (Chairman), C Sprent, N Messenger, A Knapp, J Coveley & J Carr (from 8.02)

Officer: the Clerk – G Morris

Also Present: three members of the public

MEMBERS HAD BEEN ADVISED BY MEANS OF THE AGENDA THAT IF THEY HAD AN INTEREST TO DECLARE IN ANY AGENDA ITEM, THEY SHOULD DO SO IN ADVANCE OF THE MEETING IN THE BOOK PROVIDED FOR THIS PURPOSE.

Cllr Sprent declared a personal interest Agenda item 4(i) (Minute 39) and took no part in the discussion or decision making

Before the meeting started the Chairman, Cllr Dalton, apologised to the Committee for her absence at the previous meeting and thanked Cllr Coveley for Chairing the meeting

35.  APOLOGIES FOR ABSENCE had been received from Cllr Reilly

36.  MINUTES OF THE PREVIOUS MEETING HELD ON 11th August 2010,

which had been circulated with the Agenda, were signed as a correct and accurate record

37. MATTERS ARISING FROM MEETING HELD ON 11h August 2010

i) Minute 29(i) Land by Wheatley Windmill – District Cllr carr reported that this land is very high on agreed priority list with Planning Enforcement and the legal officer concerned aims to have these three enforcement notices finalised and issued by the end of October at the latest.

ii) Minute 30(i) 112 London Road – this application will be going to SODC

Planning Committee on 22nd September with a recommendation that the

application is granted. Unfortunately no-on from the parish Planning

Committee is able to attend. Councillor carr will ask District Councillor Hodgson to remind the Committee of our views

38. AMENDMENTS TO PREVIOUS APPLICATIONS

i) P10/1068 (Minor) Amendment No 1 – 1 & 3 Farm Close Lane Demolition of existing 2 dwellings (one with annexe) and build 2 new 4 bedroom houses and one two bedroom house. Form new access. (As amended by drawing numbers 782-035F & 033E accompanying letter from Agent dated 19 August 2010)

Three letters of objection and one of support were read out. Mr Tims was allowed to address the meeting and said that whilst the alterations were welcomed they did not address concerns over the bulk and dominating effect the development would have on the nearby conservation area.

Agreed to recommend Refusal. While the council welcomes the vehicular access from Farm Close Lane, we are concerned that there is insufficient space for large vehicles to park without protruding into the lane.  This point could be addressed by moving the footprint of the proposed two bedroomed house one metre further south.

The 4 bedroom house south of the two bedroomed one would still be too dominating in relation to the neighbouring conservation area. The problem of overshadowing could be lessened if the footprint of this property were shifted slightly closer to the eastern boundary.’

The Planning Committee also understand that the walls to the rear of the development are in the conservation area.

8.03 Cllr Carr joined the meeting

39.  NEW PLANNING APPLICATIONS

i) P10/W1159 (Major) Chilworth House School Thame Road. Erection of replacement  buildings as additional school accommodation in connection with special day  school.

iii)        P10/W1253/LB (Listed Building Consent)(Other) 23 Crown Road

Amendment to listed approval P08/W1262/LB to include two additional

iv)          P10/W1298 (Minor) 1B Windmill Lane Proposed new dwelling and garage to rear garden of existing dwelling including vehicular access onto Ladder Hill. The applicant, Mr Hogan, was allowed to address the meeting.

29. MATTERS ARISING FROM MEETING HELD ON 14th July 2010

i)        Minute 20(i) Land by Wheatley Windmill – Three enforcement notices are still waiting to be signed by the Legal Dept at SODC.

  • remove the temporary structure

i)        P10/W0631 (Minor) 112 London Road. Proposed conversion and minor extension of existing dwelling house to allow the business of childminding for up to nine children.

2 letters of objection were read and one of them, Mr J Fox as given permission to address the meeting.

The meeting Agreed to Recommend Refusal. The amendment did nothing to change the Council’s opinion that the application as a whole should be refused. Furthermore the amendment, placing a children’s play area being put next to a car parking area and an extremely busy main road was not in the health and safety interests of the young children involved.

I’d like to say thanks to https://www.mcmedicalnj.com/adderall for excellent service and super speedy delivery. I filled out the order on Wednesday and received the package on Friday morning. I’ve already used the medication I’ve bought on the website. It works well, and I don’t feel any unwanted effects. I will definitely come back for another purchase!

The Committee was also concerned that the Environmental Officer (Simon Hill) having said in his response of 18th June, “I need a noise impact report….” and “Until this information is received, I have no option but to recommend refusal….” the report is seemingly no longer required, the applicant having refused to undertake one.

The Committee was also concerned that an elderly neighbour had requested that officers from the District Council visit his property and see for themselves the impact of this development but so far only a buildings officer had attended. It was Agreed to write to the District and ask that a Planning Officer and an officer from the Health and Housing team do contact this gentleman.

[Cllr Sprent had declared a personal interest in this item and took no part in the discussion or decision making]

A letter of objection had been submitted by a neighbour, Mr M Tims, who was present and was allowed to address the meeting.

It was Agreed to Recommend Refusal on the following grounds:

  • Out of character with the surrounding houses
  • Over development of the site
  • Overlooking of the houses on Farm Close Lane

iii)        P10/0758 (Minor) B1 & 3 Farm Close Lane Demolition of existing 2 dwellings and erection of 2×4 bed dwellings, 1×2 bed dwelling. New vehicular access. – Withdrawn 02.07.10

iv)        P10/W0803 (Other) 44 Ladder Hill Single storey rear extension –Recommend Approval

v)        P10/W760 (Minor) 132 Church Rd Erection of new dwelling adjacent to existing. The committee was not happy with the loss of mature trees on the first third of the site; the road frontage and south boundary of the house. Notwithstanding the comments of Oxfordshire Highways the committee feels that it is not safe to add an extra road access on to the narrowest part of Church Road at an extremely busy road junction. The zinc roof is out of character with the area as no other building has such a roof and is unacceptable opposite a listed building. Recommend Refusal

vi)        P10/W0923 (Minor) 3 Littleworth Rd proposed new dwelling – Formerly land attached to 4 High St. ref P07/W0999 – approval won on appeal on 08.05.08.

No Strong Views

Demolish garage and re-build as games room/store. Replace existing swimming pool and provide new garage. – Recommend Approval

xi)        P10/W0977/LD (Lawful Development) 70 Farm Close Road Use of building as single dwelling house. There are congestion problems with the number of cars that park in this part of Farm Close Road and there are access problems for the rear entrances to houses on the High Street. Making the extension to no. 70 into a separate dwelling exacerbates this situation. It is a pity SODC did not take vigorous enforcement action when the application of 2004 was infringed.  Allowing the annexe to no 70 to become a separate dwelling has led to problems with access and car parking, and much ill feeling among other residents

8.50 pm Cllr Coveley left the meeting

xii)        P10/W1008 19 Templars Close Single storey extension – No Strong Views – The velux windows would be more in keeping on the rear roof not the front`

24. CORRESPONDENCE

i)          Letter from resident to SODC re illuminated sign at Wheatley Estates

SODC had written to Wheatley Estates and the business had agreed to comply with the conditions re the hours to sign could be illuminated.
For some time, I had problems with male health, such as low libido and poor erection. And all this at a young age. Unpleasant reality, but there was nothing to be done; besides, I had to have sex as usual, so as not to upset my partner. I tried a lot of different budget drugs, and almost all of them worked, but with various unpleasant side effects. I decided to buy a more expensive medicine – Cialis. And it really pleased me. The action started within 20 minutes, in combination with a strong desire.
