Decision details

The Lead Member is recommended:

To approve the revisions to Charlton-on-Otmoor Conservation Area boundary and to adopt the Charlton-on-Otmoor Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan.

Resolved

(1)       That the revisions to the Charlton-on-Otmoor Conservation Area Boundary be approved.

(2)       That the Charlton-on-Otmoor Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan (appendix to the decision) be adopted.

Conservation area appraisals are an important way of ensuring that this aspect of policy framework is up-to-date, robust and of the greatest value in the consideration of development proposals within conservation areas.

Up-to-date conservation area appraisals will assist the consideration of planning applications in the areas covered by the appraisal from the point at which they are adopted, and will also assist the implementation of the Cherwell Local Plan.

It is for these reasons that it is recommended that the revisions to the boundary of the Charlton-on-Otmoor Conservation Area be adopted along with the Charlton-on-Otmoor Conservation Area Appraisal and Management Plan.

The following alternative options have been identified:

Option 1: To agree the recommendations as set out in the report

Option 2: To amend the recommendations

Option 3: Not to agree the recommendations
