About Me

South Oxfordshire, United Kingdom
We are the neighbours of the "Chilterns Water Mill" - featured on the episode of Grand Designs first broadcast on the 4th February 2009. We were asked to take part in the programme, but were strongly advised not to due to the extremely serious nature of allegations we have made against South Oxfordshire District Council - including improper conduct on the part of specific employees and councillors. The council is currently under investigation by the Local Government Ombudsman and the Standards Board for England. If anyone is serious about wanting to know details of the allegations or a fuller account of what has gone on - email me (from an address I can identify please) and we might talk further.

Planning Committees

As things are quiet at the moment pending various responses. I thought I might pose an open question:

The planning committee at South Oxfordshire District Council (and I assume all other local authorities) is made up of members whose political persuasion reflects the balance of power at the council.

Given that it is specifically unlawful for planning decisions to be made based on political considerations - what is the justification for this?

I would be genuinely interested in a response from anyone in a position to explain...
