04/11/10….Confusion over choice of future housing in Thame
FOLLOWING weeks of sometimes acrimonious discussion and consultation over the site for future housing growth in Thame, there was confusion today over which site was to be recommended by planners to the district council.
A document attached to the agenda of November 9’s meeting of South Oxfordshire District Council’s Scrutiny committee, appeared on SODC’s website stating that planning officers recommended site D. Today, however, the document had apparently been changed to show that site F was to be recommended. That document was later not available on the website.
According to a spokesperson in SODC’s planning department, because of an administrative error a template document had not been updated correctly.
A document showing the correct recommendation, site F, and reasons to support that recommendation, will, say SODC, be uploaded to the website tomorrow (Friday) as Appendix 6, Strategic Housing Allocations, with the other supporting documents for the Scrutiny committee meeting on November 9.
The link to find the document and others associated with the meeting, is:
