Minutes:

The Committee considered an application for the retention of temporary classroom for a further 3 years at Emmanuel Christian School, Sandford Road, Littlemore, Oxford.

 

The Planning Officer recommended that on re-consideration it would be more appropriate for the information to be set out in a letter instead of in an informative as proposed in the report

 

Elizabeth Nesbitt (representing the school) attended to answer questions from the Committee.

 

A proposal was made and seconded to refuse the application because the public benefit of early years provision was not considered to outweigh the harm to the settings of the listed church and conservation area heritage assets and so the test in the 2018 NPPF para 196 (where a development proposal will lead to less than substantial harm to the significance of a designated heritage asset, this harm should be weighed against the public benefits of the proposal) was not met.

 

This was declared lost on the Chair’s casting vote.

 

On being proposed, seconded and put to the vote, and on the Chair’s casting vote the Committee agreed with the officer’s recommendation to approve the application with one condition but with the recommended informative communicated by letter.

 

East Area Planning Committee resolved to:

1.    approve application 18/02776/FUL for the reasons given in the report and subject to the one required planning condition set out in section 12 of the report and grant planning permission; and
