Planning Applications – The Process

Planning applications are handled by West Oxfordshire District Council (WODC), but Charlbury Town Council (CTC) plays an important advisory role in the process.

Who is responsible for what?

  • West Oxfordshire District Council (WODC)
    • Makes the final decision on planning applications.
    • Assesses applications based on local and national planning policies.
    • Consults relevant bodies, including parish and town councils.
    • Handles planning enforcement and appeals.
  • Charlbury Town Council (CTC)
    • Acts as a consultee in the planning process but does not make final decisions.
    • Reviews applications at public planning meetings.
    • Submits comments to WODC, considering policies, community impact, and resident feedback.
    • Can support or object to applications but cannot approve or refuse them.

How to Have Your Say on a Planning Application

  1. Submit Comments to WODC
    • Residents can comment on applications via the WODC planning portal.
    • Comments should reference relevant planning policies or potential impact.
  2. Engage with Charlbury Town Council
    • Attend CTC Planning Meetings, where residents can speak on applications.
    • Email or contact town councillors before meetings to share your views.
    • View meeting agendas on the Town Council website or noticeboards.
  3. Follow the Decision Process
    • WODC will review all responses before making a decision.
    • If an application is refused, the applicant may appeal, which is handled by the Planning Inspectorate.
