Dear Ms Ford,

DISCHARGE OF CONDITION 24 (FOUL DRAINAGE) OF 05/01337/OUT   
LAND NORTH EAST OF OXFORD ROAD WEST OF OXFORD CANAL AND EAST OF BANKSIDE BANBURY         

Thank you for consulting us on this matter. We received the letter on 11 February 2015 and are now in a position to respond.

From our records it appears that this was not a condition that we requested. However, we would advise that it appears that the requirements of conditions 24 have NOT been met.

The plans that have been submitted state that foul drainage will be via the existing network; however there is nothing to indicate where connection will be made to the mains network. 

We can see no record of communication with Thames Water to determine if there is availability capacity within the network, and/or if upgrades are required and if appropriate, what these upgrades will be and how they will be aligned with the development “phases”.

We advise that more details need to be submitted in regards to foul drainage and associated network capacity, to ensure that adequate foul drainage is in place for the development prior to any occupation.

Yours sincerely,

Mr Jack Moeran
Planning Advisor
