P19/V2428/FUL.
208 Steventon Road, Drayton, Abingdon OX14. The Parish Council had already given its full support to this planning application, and noted that it had been called in for consideration by the VWHDC Planning Committee when it meets in January 2020.
P19/V2486/O.
Outline planning application for the erection of 3 detached dwellings with parking under timber frame car ports on land to the rear of and part of the garden of Norrington House, demolition of the existing garage to facilitate provision of access along existing driveway, landscaping reserved for later determination. Norrington House 22 High Street Drayton Abingdon OX14 4JL.
PC: Objection:
The original (withdrawn) planning application for this site was for 10 houses and we understand was withdrawn because of the Vale of White Horse confirming that the retail space at the roadward edge of the plot was required to be retained. In the PC opinion, this application for three houses clearly is under using the site and is very likely to be followed by subsequent applications for further development at the rear of the site. The PC consider this appears to be a way of avoiding the requirements to provide social housing by developing the site piecemeal and may also be an attempt to bypass the requirement to retain the retail frontage on the site.
P19/V2534/HH.
Single storey conservatory to the right side of the property. 1 Monk Close Drayton Oxfordshire OX14 4GW.
PC: Objection:
This is in a conservation area.
P19/V2559/FUL.
Proposed new 3-bedroom dwelling with associated surface parking and creation of new dropped kerb and vehicular access by demolishing a section of the boundary wall (Re-submission of application P16/V2954/FUL). Land adjacent to 3 Church Lane Drayton Abingdon OX14 4JS.
Graham Web declared an interest in this application and did not express an opinion.
PC: Objection:
The development will add extra vehicle movements on a road that is already seriously congested and will have an adverse effect on street parking by reducing the on-street parking on a road that is already seriously overused for residential parking.
P19/V2615/LB (Listed Building Consent).
Proposed new 3-bedroom dwelling with associated surface parking and creation of new dropped kerb and vehicular access by demolishing a section of the boundary wall (Re-submission of application P16/V2954/FUL). Land adjacent to 3 Church Lane Drayton Abingdon OX14 4JS.
PC: Objection:
The development will involve demolition of a very old boundary wall in a conservation area.
