General 19/09/2023 - OCC Cabinet Meeting

[uptheus]

Mods have been busy on next door while we have been watching whole posts being removed

Leave the 3 or 5 of them to it

 

[unification]

'We will need [transport] modelling. Yes, but we would not expect it at this stage'.

EXACTLY! Listen to your officers, Middleton.

 

[LowerSouth]

Councillor Andrew Gant (transport)
Aware of loss of green belt , but the loss of the triangle would be minuscule in comparison to developments already passed .
Less impact than the new northern gateway ( 1200 parking spaces vs 150 at newstad.

 

[LowerSouth]

Gant broadly in favour

 

[Fanatica]

A BREAK!?!?! Just vote

 

[Leysboy]

This is going to planning. Happy days everyone.

The funniest part of this meeting, was when Middleton was waffling, Leffman had her hand on cheek basically saying to her self, shut up you idiot.

 

[unification]

A break! Noooooooo. Right. I'm off for lunch.

 

[Foley]

This is going to go on until after lunch

 

[behindthegoal]

Taking a break, them coming back!!!

 

[RyanioBirdio]

“I suggest we take a break at twenty past one and then come back to this later.”

OH DEAR GOD.

 

[Concretebob]

Two more speakers then a break. Don't expect a decision until 2 at least now

 

[Foley]

Generally really positive but with some concerns

 

[andystroud]

They are going for lunch before making a decision - priorities?

 

[Malc]

And supper

Gant is hair splitting now - genuinely neutral as opposed to psuedo neutral-

seems there's a break coming up before the all important vote ?

 

[Leysboy]

Everyone is saying they have some concerns, but mostly massively in favour.

Liz Leffman will get a nice BIG kiss if I get the chance to meet her.

 

[captainox]

Not surprised it's taking this long - we've already had one deferral in the process and they know how important a decision is today.
Discussion is vital to ensure the proper points are eased out and ultimately the incorrect/desperate ones are disproved.

 

[Abingdon Ched]

They are making it very clear (in my opinion) that they are going to approve this, from the language they are using...…. but the pressure is back on the club to prove in the planning they can deliver what they have said

 

[captainox]

Not noticed much discussion on whether sale/lease option

 

[bazzer9461]

Council think the 7 conditions have been met and the locals don’t
