Issue - meetings

Approved, conditions to be set out in the minutes.

The Committee considered application 21/01454/F for a proposed Bicester Health and Wellbeing Hub at Former Rodney House, Private Drive off Graven Hill Road, Ambrosden for Mr Richard Drew.

The Senior Manager - Development Management explained that Councillor Sibley had corresponded with all members of Planning Committee in advance of the Committee requesting that they support his proposal that consideration of application 21/01454/F be deferred to allow for a site visit. The Solicitor  had interpreted this as lobbying and Councillor Sibley had made a declaration accordingly and would leave the room while the Chairman asked if any member of the Committee wanted to propose a deferral or site visit.   Should the Committee continue to consider application 21/01454/F Councillor Sibley would be able to participate in the debate and vote on the application as he had not expressed a view on the application itself.

It was proposed by Councillor Broad and seconded by Councillor Dallimore that consideration of application 21/01454/F be deferred to allow for a site visit.

On being put to the vote the proposal was lost and the motion subsequently fell.  As the application would be considered by the Committee, Councillor Sibley re-joined the meeting.

Paul Troop of Bicester Bike Users’ Group addressed the Committee in objection to the application.

Dan Sames, local resident, addressed the Committee in support of the application.

In reaching its decision the Committee considered the officer’s report and presentation, the written updates and the addresses of the public speakers.
