Development Management Sub-Committee - Monday, 10th August, 2026 2.00 pm

The Development Management Sub-Committee of West Oxfordshire Council met on Monday 10 August 2026, where they discussed several planning applications. The committee refused an outline application for up to 80 dwellings on Common Road, North Leigh, due to concerns about overdevelopment and its impact on the village's character and infrastructure. However, they approved applications for two self-build dwellings in Kingham and alterations to the Grade II listed Coach House and Stables in Asthall. The committee also authorised officers to proceed with the statutory consultation process for the diversion of a public footpath in Shipton under Wychwood.
