Decision
Refusal of Planning Permission on 15th September 1999
Conditions / Refusal Reasons
That the proposal would be contrary to Policy G4 of the Oxfordshire
Structure Plan 2011, Policy GB3 of the adopted South Oxfordshire
Local Plan and Government advice in PPG2 Green Belts. Having regard
to the siting of the proposed accommodation building, beyond the
main built up limits of the existing university buildings, the
proposal is not considered to constitute limited infilling and would
extend development onto largely grassed, open land. The proposal
therefore constitutes inappropriate development which is by definition
harmful to the Green Belt and would detract from its open rural
character. In addition it is considered that very special circumstances
have not been proven since other alternative more appropriate sites
exist.
That the proposal would be contrary to Policies EN1 and EN4 of the
Oxfordshire Structure Plan 2011, and Policies G1, G8 and C1 of the
adopted South Oxfordshire Local Plan. Having regard to the size,
massing and siting of the proposed new accommodation building, it
would appear prominent and intrusive and extend development onto
largely open land.
