Outline planning permission (12/02848/OUT) was granted by the Committee on 4 December 2013 for the development of the site.
Councillor Tanner, local ward councillor, spoke about the application. He said he was broadly in support of the development but urged the committee to ask officers to write to all parties asking that they improve pedestrian access and find a way to provide pedestrian and cycle paths through from the site to the centre of Littlemore.
Robert Froud-Williams and Nathan Cracker, representing the applicant, spoke in support of the application.
The Committee noted Councillor Tanner’s concerns and agreed to instruct officers to add an informative to use the best endeavours of all parties to create as soon as possible a permanent pedestrian/cycle link into the centre of Littlemore by or through NHS land (as shown on the plans: to run across the railway near the hospital linking into Sandford Road) and write to all parties informing them of this and ask them to expedite the link.
The Committee resolved to approve reserved matters application 15/02269/RES subject to the following conditions and with an informative:
1. Time Limit. 2. Development carried out in accordance with the approved plans. 3. To exclude the landscaping details and seek revised landscaping proposals in accordance with condition 6 of outline planning permission 12/02848/OUT. 4. Detailed car parking plan. 5.

Garages To The Rear Of 1 3 5 7 And 9 Coppock Close: 15/03117/FUL PDF 125 KB Site Address: Garages to the Rear of 1, 3, 5, 7 and 9 Coppock Close Oxford
Proposal: Demolition of 11 garages. Erection of 1 x 2bed dwellinghouse (Use Class C3). Provision of private amenity space, car parking, bin and cycle storage.
Officer Recommendation: to refuse the application for the following reasons:
1 The proposal is unacceptable as it would create poor quality residential accommodation to the detriment of the amenities of the future occupiers. In particular the restricted site area and awkward shape together with the proximity of the oversailing quarry wall would result in habitable rooms and private amenity space with a poor outlook and limited levels of natural light, whilst also experiencing noise and disturbance from manoeuvring vehicles entering the site from the access road and would thus fail to provide good quality internal and external space for the future occupiers. Therefore the proposal would fail to create acceptable living conditions for the future occupiers of the dwellings, contrary to Policies CP1 and CP10 of the adopted Oxford Local Plan 2001-2016, and Policies HP12, HP13, and HP14 of the Sites and Housing Plan.

The Chair informed the committee that the ward councillor, Councillor Sinclair, was not able to attend but had expressed concerns that the quarry wall was unsafe (part of this collapsed recently) and this could be considered as a reason for refusal.
