Planning Application - 11/02446/FUL - Cantay House, 36-39 Park End Street PDF 36 KB Proposal: Demolition of rearmost building. Erection of a 5 storey building consisting of 9 x 2 bed flats with cycle parking, bin stores and landscaping.
This application was considered by West Area Planning Committee on 8th December 2011. It was subsequently called in to the Planning Review Committee.
Report of the Head of City Development attached.
Additional documents: Minutes: The Head of City Development submitted a report (previously circulated, now appended) concerning planning application 11/02446/FUL – demolition of rearmost building. Erection of 5 storey building consisting of 9 x 2 bed flats with cycle parking, bin storage and landscaping, at Cantay House, 36-39 Park End Street.
Murray Hancock and Mark Jaggard presented the report to the Committee and answered questions. No one spoke either for or against the application.
Having taken all submissions into account, both written and oral, the Committee resolved to REFUSE the application for the following reason:-
The proposed scheme for the erection of 9 x 2 bedroom residential flats on a site with capacity for 10 units is inappropriate as it does not include a contribution towards the provision of affordable housing in Oxford, which is contrary to policy CS24 of the adopted Oxford Core Strategy of the Affordable Housing SPD, and policies HP3 and HP4 of the Sites and Housing Plan; and would cause harm by failing to contribute to the provision of mixed and balanced communities across Oxford as required by those policies.
