The Head of Planning, Sustainable Development and Regulatory Services submitted a report to present the conservation area appraisal for North Oxford Victorian Suburb to the Board for approval.

 

Sarah Chesshyre, Graduate Apprentice Planner, introduced the report which followed on from the draft considered by the CEB in February 2017 and which had since been subject to consultation. The report sought to protect an important area of the City. Consideration had been given to extending the area to include adjacent Walton Manor but on balance it had been decided not to do so for the time being.

 

Cllr Price thanked Sarah Chesshyre and her colleagues for a good report.

The Head of Planning and Regulatory submitted a report which presented the North Oxford Victorian Suburb Conservation Area Appraisal and sought approval to go out to consultation.

 

Cllr Hollingsworth, Board Member for Planning and Regulatory Services presented the report. He explained that the appraisal would go out for consultation.

 

The Apprentice Planner said the appraisal lists the heritage of the area. Adopting a character appraisal will inform future decisions in the North Oxford Area. There is potential to expand the current conservation area boundary and merge several conservation areas into one. This will be considered during the consultation process.

 

Cllr Price asked how Council was going to engage with conservation groups. The Team Leader for Design, Heritage & Trees said that several public meetings for conservation groups and residents have been arranged. The consultant of the report will also be attending.

 

The earliest the report will come back to CEB will be June 2017, however if the boundary of the conservation area changes this will delay the final report.

 

The City Executive Board resolves to:

 

1.    Endorse the draft conservation area appraisal as the basis for public consultation (attached to this report);

 

2.    Approve the carrying out of consultation upon the draft appraisal; and
