Planning Application Chilton Field CHI/16952/1-X

'The Didcot Herald' for 29 September 2005 has another public notice about this planning application (dated 29 September 2005) on page 48. This one begins:

Notice Under Article 8
The proposed development does not accord with
the provisions of the development plan in force in
the area in which the land to which the application
relates is situated.


I asked the Vale of the White Horse Planning office today whether this is a new application, and was told that this is not a new application; this notice should have been attached to the original application made in August. It means that this application refers to land for which no development was planned in the current 'development plan' for the area.

There is no need to make the same comments if you have made some already. However, you can add further comments if circumstances have changed recently, such as the announcement (on page 4 of 'The Didcot Herald' for 29 September 2005) that the government has allocated anothe 6 million pounds for development of the Diamond synchrotron, the ISIS second target station and a proposed research facility.

Representations should be made in writing by 20 October 2005 to the Planning officer at the address below.
