A RECENT decision to approve outline planning permission for houses on the old Thame United site, may now not be legitimate.
It has been revealed that two residents of properties close to the the site in Windmill Road, Thame, have said that they were not notified about the Planning committee meeting at South Oxfordshire District Council on September 17, and so were unable to make representations against the development.
The district council has now to decide whether or not to bring the application back to the planning committee to be re-considered.
The following are the conditions on which the outline planning permission was granted:
“a) Oxfordshire County Council to secure financial contributions towards education, libraries, waste management, museum services, social and health care and highway improvements
b) South Oxfordshire District Council to provide for 40 per cent affordable housing, payment of a recreation contribution and a community facilities contribution and alternative provision made for the Football Club and subject to the views of Thames Water and the Environment Agency and the following conditions:
1. Approval of reserved matters prior to commencement
2. Submission of reserved matters within three years
3. Commencement within three years or two years of
final approval of reserved matters
4. Tree protection
5. Restrict hours of work usage during construction
6. Reserved matters application shall include a
scheme for the provision of public art.
