PLANNING MATTERS 17 October 2021

COURT PLACE

We have obtained this update about the Forestry Work and Court A (the block next to East Church) amendments. If you wish to comment on Court A changes the closing date is 27th October, ref 21/02474/VAR.

‘OU have completed the forestry works for this year. This has included clearance work and formation of path. They are about to replace the fence with a post and rail fence. The University is liaising with Oxford Direct Services and Wild Oxford to replant certain parts, with works planned to take place in the new year with help from local voluntary groups.’

‘The officer wanted changes to eastern limb of Court A. We have moved the top 4 units in to the Court yard by 1.5 metres and hipped the rear roof. This materially reduces any loss of sunlight to the adjacent garden and reduces bulk. The windows on the rear have also been fixed with louvres to restrict any overlooking to the neighbouring garden. All other matters remain as submitted.’

HORSE FIELDS

Consultation on Horse Fields/Meadow Lane – Deadline is 22nd October. See https://consultwithyou.co.uk/ochl/iffley/home
