Refusal of Planning Permission on 15th July 2009
Conditions / Refusal Reasons
The application site lies in a rural location to the south of the main built up area of Towersey where there is a general presumption against new housing development with regard to Policy H6 of the South Oxfordshire Local Plan 2011 (SOLP). However, the principle of the conversion of the existing building may be acceptable provided that all of the relevant criteria of Policy E8 of the SOLP are complied with. In relation to Criterion (vii) of Policy E8 the applicant has not demonstrated that other non-residential uses of the building have been explored and found to be unacceptable in planning terms. Furthermore, the proposal fails to comply with Policy E6 of the SOLP as it has not been demonstrated that the existing employment use or any other suitable employment or service trade use is economically unviable.
