He indicated that this was not such as to preclude his participation in consideration of the application. As the applicant, Councillor Cotterill declared an interest in Application No. 19/01307/FUL (Car Park at Gulidenford, Burford). He advised that he would speak as the applicant in accordance with the Council’s scheme of public participation but would then leave the meeting.

APPLICATIONS FOR DEVELOPMENT The Sub-Committee received the report of the Business Manager – Development Management, giving details of applications for development, copies of which had been circulated. A schedule outlining additional observations received following the production of the agenda was circulated at the meeting, a copy of which is included within the Minute Book and published on the Council’s website. (In order to assist members of the public, the Sub-Committee considered the applications in which those present had indicated a particular interest in the following order:- 19/00920/FUL, 19/00927/HHD, 19/01067/HHD, 19/02012/FUL, 19/01180/HHD and 19/01307/FUL The results of the Sub-Committee’s deliberations follow in the order in which they appeared on the printed agenda). RESOLVED: That the decisions on the following applications be as indicated, the reasons for refusal or conditions related to a permission to be as recommended in the report of the Business Manager – Development Management, subject to any amendments as detailed below:- 3 19/00920/FUL Corner House, Church Road, Churchill The Principal Planner, Abby Fettes, introduced the application and advised Members that certain elements of the applicant’s case as set out in the report referred to a previous application. The applicant, Mr Peter Dunnicliffe, addressed the meeting in support of the application. A summary of his submission is attached as Appendix A to the original copy of these minutes. The Principal Planner then presented the report containing a recommendation of refusal. Councillor Owen expressed some concern at the manner in which this application had been dealt with and, in particular, with regard to communication between the Council’s Officers and the applicant. He thanked Officers for their report and recognised their expertise but advised that he did not agree with their conclusion that the proposal would result in an overly urbanised development. The Principal Planner advised that the Conservation Officer had been concerned over the siting of the proposed building adjacent to the boundary and its consequent visibility within the Conservation Area from the outset and throughout. Councillor Owen expressed his support for the application and Councillor Davies agreed that permission should be granted. Councillor Beaney proposed that consideration of the application be deferred to enable a site visit to be held in order for Members to assess the potential impact of the development on the site. 2 In seconding the proposition, Councillor Cotterill indicated that he would like to see the footprint of the building pegged out and a physical indication of its height. The proposition of deferral was then put to the vote and was carried. Deferred to enable a site visit to take place. 9 19/00927/HHD Pinsley Farmhouse, 170 Main Road, Long Hanborough The Planning Officer, Sarah Hegerty, introduced the application. The applicant, Mr Nick Snell, addressed the meeting in support of the application. A summary of his submission is attached as Appendix B to the original copy of these minutes. The Planning Officer then presented her report containing a recommendation of refusal. Councillor Davies agreed that this was a huge extension but suggested that it would still appear linear in form. She did not consider that it would be over- dominant and believed it to be subservient to the host property. The applicant had worked hard to follow the Council’s design guidelines and Councillor Davies considered these to be urban based. She believed that there should be a mechanism to consider such development in a rural setting and look behind the objectives of planning legislation. Councillor Davies did not feel the proposed development would impact upon the neighbouring property and believed that a precedent for such development had already been set by permitting the extension of the Old Police House. The Planning Officer advised that each application had to be considered on its own merits with regard being taken of the specific location. This application differed significantly from that at the Old Police House. Councillor Davies maintained that the development at the
