Councillor Simon Holland addressed the committee as Ward member.

David Pratt, Kirtlington Parish Council Chairman addressed the committee in objection

In reaching their decision, the committee considered the officers’ report, presentation and written update and the address of the public speakers.

Resolved

1.            Notwithstanding the Council’s present inability to demonstrate that it has a five year housing land supply as required by paragraph 47 of the NPPF, the development of this site as proposed cannot be justified on the basis of the land supply shortfall alone. The proposal constitutes development which by virtue of its scale, size and form fails to respect the traditional settlement pattern of Kirtlington, extending beyond its built up limits into the open countryside, resulting in an incongruous, unsustainable and inappropriate form of development which pays little regard to the traditional settlement pattern and  which would relate poorly to the remainder of the village, and cause demonstrable harm to the character of the village and visual amenities of the immediate locality, contrary to Policies H18, C8, C27, C28 and C30 of the adopted Cherwell Local Plan and Policies ESD13 and ESD16 of the Submission Cherwell Local Plan and Central government advice within the National Planning Policy Framework.

2.            In the absence of a satisfactory planning obligation, the Local Planning Authority is not convinced that the infrastructure and affordable housing directly required as a result of this scheme will be delivered. This would be contrary to Policy H5 of the adopted Cherwell Local Plan and Policy INF1 of the Submission Local Plan and Central government guidance within the national Planning policy Framework.

Resolved

That application 14/01825/OUT be refused for the following reasons:

1.               Notwithstanding the Council’s present inability to demonstrate that it has a 5 year housing land supply as required by paragraph 47 of the NPPF, the development of this site cannot be justified on the basis of the land supply shortfall alone.
