    Chadlington Parish Council has no objections to the proposals detailed in this Planning Application. However, you will be aware that there was a Building Control Application for the conversion of the Lambing Shed to form a Café on 2 November 2020. In addition to this
    a Licensing Application W/21/00058/PRMA was also made in February 2021, which makes the following statements.
    Section 5 – “This is also to allow the opening of a café/function area adjacent to the shop.”
    Section 18 – “This is a low-risk application to license a remote farm shop, café & function areas to sell alcohol and provide entertainment.”
    Section 18 – “max capacity 150 people.” Whilst the current Planning Application makes no reference to any of the above as being the reason for these alterations, the Parish Council is concerned that, in the event of this application being approved, this should not confirm a change of use status for this agricultural building. .
    The Parish Council remains concerned regarding the effect of the incremental development at this location, both upon the local community, its existing shops and an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The number of cars currently visiting this site is already substantial, often filling the existing available parking space and overflowing onto the Chipping Norton Road, which is hardly desirable in an AONB and creates a significant risk that accidents will occur.
    21/02126/S73
    The Gables, West End
    Variation of condition 2 of planning permission 20/02577/RES to allow design changes to the dwellings.
    20/02577/RES Reserved matters application relating to 17/01079/OUT for the erection of three new dwelling houses with associated car parking (appearance, landscaping, layout and scale) and discharge of conditions 2 and 3 of 17/01079/OUT (materials and landscaping)

    The Gables, West End
    Variation of condition 2 of planning permission
    19/02460/FUL to allow repositioning of Unit D and changes to design of both units C and D.

     Representatives from Gigaclear have visited the village and walked around with Cllrs Hilary Moore and Neil Owen to inspect areas damaged and disturbed by the fitting of the full fibre Broadband. They have agreed that these will be rectified, no timescale given.
268. County Council Report
     Cllr Liz Leffman recognised the problems with the drains flooding. It was noted that the Thames Water drains were also flooding. OCC has no money left except for emergencies. Drains were scheduled in a four-year cycle for maintenance which does not seem adequate in rural areas. There was no plan at present to put a 20mph limit through Chadlington, however a request for consultation and signage could be arranged by contacting James Wright at Highways. (Clerk to handle). Cllr Leffman had donated funds to support a Food Bank at Cornerstone in Charlbury which could be used by Chadlington residents in need.

     The Planning Application 20/02104/FUL, Storage Land in Horseshoe Lane was discussed in depth at the meeting.

Two other benches are on order, one in memory of Mr & Mrs Bunting for the pavement side of the Stonelee Close green as agreed with local residents and the other in memory of Enid Eden to be in the Memorial Hall grounds. Two two-seater benches are also being ordered for the Bus Stop in Chipping Norton Road.
277. Allotments
     Complaints have been received with regard to children running out of control on the allotments. A letter or email has been sent to all tenants advising that we welcome children on the allotments to learn about growing vegetables and suchlike but they should not treat it as a playground. Respect should be shown for all allotment tenants. Enquiries are being made with regard to providing water at the allotments. The car park is for Eversley Close residents and should not be used by allotment tenants.
278. Playground
     A reasonable report was received from RoSPA. Brian Hamblin and Ron Arthur are doing a sterling job in keeping the playground in shipshape condition for which the Parish Council is extremely grateful and offers its thanks.

     The Memorial Hall remains closed to date and will hopefully be opening soon. The School does not have a need to use the Memorial Hall at present.
252. Methodist Church: update
     There is no positive news on the possible use of the Methodist Hall.
253. Benches, Tables & Bus Stop
     Clerk to contact Tara Smith to confirm the type of bench she would prefer for the green at the junction of Church Road and Chipping Norton Road. The Bus Stop in Chipping Norton Road has been renovated. Two two-seater benches to be ordered for placing inside the shelter. The bench proposed to be placed near the Bus Stop proved to be impossible due to no suitable spot near the Bus Stop.
254. Allotments
     The water situation has been put on hold until further information on costings available. The chicken wire to be erected on the fence.
255. Playground
     RoSPA has been delayed in making the inspection of the Playground. This should take place soon.

     A request for 2 bags of salt to top up the bins at the rear of the Memorial Hall plus a replacement bin for the broken one opposite the Café de la Post.
