??*Valley Park Update*??

1️⃣ Good news! The Oxfordshire Clinical Commissioning Group (OCCG) have now responded to the Valley Park planning application, asking the developer to provide just under ? £4million ? for healthcare provision, as well as allocating land for a GP surgery site, in the event that the one on Great Western Park does not get built ?

This is brilliant news, as previously there was no response and hence no money or land allocated for healthcare, which was extremely concerning, and one of the key reasons the planning committee voted to defer the decision on the planning application. The response from the OCCG needs to pass various planning tests so it is not yet set in stone, but we are very happy that this is a big step in the right direction ✅

I personally also wrote to the OCCG Board about the Great Western Park provision and am still awaiting a response which I will share once I have it ?

The full text of their response is on the planning application (link below) on the response shown in the attached screenshot.
