Dear Mr Broughton
PLANNING PROPOSAL – CONSULTATION WITH CHERWELL DISTRICT COUNCIL

Application No.:	19/00407/CM	
Applicant’s Name:	Peter Bennie Ltd	
Proposal:	Section 73 application to vary condition 99 of planning permission ref 12/01365/CM (MW.0113/12); to relocate the ephemeral pond at Alkerton Quarry (OCC ref MW.0020/19)	
Location:	Alkerton Quarry Alkerton With Shenington Banbury OX15 6HY  	
Parish(es):	Hornton	

I write to inform you that the above proposal was considered under delegated powers and that Oxfordshire County Council is advised that Cherwell District Council raises no objections to the proposal subject to appropriate consideration being given to ecology matters and the following comments from the Council’s Landscape Officer: 'The provision of only 8 trees is inadequate.  Due regard should be given to appropriate tree planting within the proposed hedgerow along the western boundary. To provide a variety of habitats trees should be included in some parts of the planting as shown on the proposed plan (KB-AQ/101)'.
	
Cherwell District Council requests that it be informed of the outcome of the application once a decision has been made.

If you have any queries, you are advised to contact the Case Officer Bob Neville, on 01295 221875.

Yours faithfully

Robert Jolley
Assistant Director for Planning and Economy
