The Committee considered a report detailing an amendment for the planning consent for the development of the land Adjacent 30A Union Street, Oxford.

The Planning Officer presented the report and explained that the requirement for a legal agreement for a contribution towards affordable housing does not meet the tests in national planning policy for the seeking of developer contributions due to the provisions of Policy HP4 of the Sites and Housing not applying to the proposed development.

On being put to the vote the Committee agreed with the officer recommendation.

The Committee resolved to remove the requirement for an affordable housing contribution for the planning consent for the development of the land Adjacent 30A Union Street, Oxford.
