Following the granting of outline planning permission last year for the Barton Park development (see Barton Park: 13/01383/OUT), the applicant is preparing to submit “Reserved Matters” planning application/s in relation to key strategic infrastructure for the site, which is anticipated to be reported to the East Area Planning Committee for decision before the end of 2014.

This application/s will contain details of the junction arrangements to the A40, the main spinal road, including the two public squares, surface water and foul drainage, the linear Park and any earthworks needed to re-level parts of the site.

This briefing has been arranged for the applicants to update Councillors both in terms of these infrastructure works, as well as on progress to date on detailed proposals to deliver the residential and other development on the site.

This meeting is open to members of the public. All are welcome to attend. There is no need to contact the Council beforehand.

Location: Oxford Town Hall

Thursday 24 July

17.00

PS Ruth agrees that 17.00 is a very poor start time for people with full-time jobs outside Oxford, and for those who pick up children from school and nursery straight after work. She constantly complains about this to officers!
