Councillor Ian Corkin addressed the committee as the local Ward member.

Nick Hemstock, agent for the applicant, addressed the committee in support of the application.

In reaching their decision, the Committee considered the officers’ report, presentation and address of the speakers.

Resolved

That application 15/00758/F be refused for the following reasons:

1.            The applicants have failed to demonstrate a clear need for further roadside catering facilities on the A43, resulting in unnecessary harm to the character and appearance of the countryside. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policy ESD13 of the Adopted Cherwell Local Plan 2031 Part 1, Policies C8 and TR8 of the Adopted Local Plan 1996 and central Government guidance contained within the National Planning Policy Framework.   

2.            Insufficient robust assessment of alternative locations along the A43 have been undertaken to establish that should a further roadside catering facility be required, that the application site represents the most appropriate location in terms of serving this need, maximising locational sustainability benefits and minimising visual impact upon the open countryside. The proposal is therefore contrary to Policy ESD13 of the Adopted Cherwell Local Plan 2031 Part 1, Policy C8 of the Adopted Local Plan 1996 and central Government guidance contained within the National Planning Policy Framework

Refused, reasons to be set out in the minutes

The Committee considered application 15/01384/OUT an outline application for the erection of 5 residential dwellings.

Huw Mellor, agent for the applicant, addressed the committee in support of the application.

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

Resolved

That application 15/01384/OUT be refused subject to:

1.               The proposed development would be outside the built up limits of Adderbury and within the open countryside.   Taking into account the amount of new housing development already planned to take place at Adderbury, the Council's ability to demonstrate that it has a current 5 year housing land supply, and the very low density of the proposed development, the development is considered to be unnecessary, undesirable and unsustainable new housing development that would harm the rural character and setting of the village. Therefore the proposal is considered unacceptable in principle and conflicts with Policy Villages 1 of the Cherwell Local Plan Part 1, and Saved Policies H18 of the Cherwell Local Plan (1996), the NPPF in particular paragraphs 7, 8, 9, 10, 14 and 17 and section 7 'Requiring good design', and the PPG.

2.               The proposed development by virtue of its intrusion into the open countryside, loss of open land, backland position, and proposed layout and access would have a detrimental impact on the character and appearance of the Conservation Area, the setting of the village and nearby listed buildings and the enjoyment of the nearby rights of way.  There are no public benefits which would outweigh this harm.  The proposed development would therefore be contrary to Policy ESD13 and ESD15 of the Cherwell Local Plan Part 1, Saved Policy C28, C30 and C33 of the Cherwell Local Plan (1996) and advice in the NPPF in particularly particular paragraphs 7, 17, 75, chapter 7 and chapter 12.

Refused, reasons to be set out in the minutes

The Committee considered application 15/01565/F for the erection of a two storey side extension and a Change of Use from Class C3 residential to HMO (Sui Generis).

Graham Fullager, a local resident, addressed the committee in objection to the application.

Andy Bedwell, the applicant, addressed the committee in support of the application.

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

Resolved

That application 15/01565/F be refused for the following reason:

1.            The proposal, by reason of the number of bedrooms proposed and the consequent parking provision requirement would result in severe harm to local highway and pedestrian safety, and in a poor standard of design that would be unsafe, with poor access, and would fail to safeguard the amenity of future occupiers.  The proposed development would therefore fail to accord with paragraphs 14, 32, 58 and 64 of the Framework and Policy ESD15 of the Cherwell Local Plan 2011-2031 Part 1.

Approved, subject to various requirements to be set out in the minutes
