Unsure as the
impact of this relating to the stupid proposals to build 600 house
on land east of Kingston Bagpuize

Because the new
Lioncourt development on the land to the south of the A420 will
impact Kingston Bagpuize/Southmoor considerably more than Tubney or
Fyfield. Therefore, the residents of Kingston Bagpuize should have
the Lioncourt residents' Council Tax contributions so that, via the
Parish Council, the village can introduce or influence decisions
taken about the development - pre-planning and post sales.
The safty of road traffic and pedestrians (to and from bus stops,
going to school, etc) on the sections of the A420 and A415 in this
area must be improved if more housing is being introduced and it is
only likely to happen if one Parish Council is responsible for this
area.

We strongly
support keeping the boundary as it is; there is no need to change
the boundaries. This is merely an attempt by Lioncourt to garner
support for an untenable development on this land, which has no
local support and to which we have raised numerous worrying
concerns. These objections have been completely ignored by
Lioncourt.

There is no logic
to the proposal, except the desire for Kingston Bagpuize to
subsequently wave through a controversial planning application for
that land and for them to receive the benefits in terms of
investments from the developers, while leaving the residents of
Fyfield and Tubney to deal with the negative impact of the
development. Since Kingston Bagpuize already has a by-pass for the
A420, they are sheltered from the worst traffic impacts that the
new development would create. This is a very cynical proposal by
Kingston Bagpuize

I am the Treasurer
of the KBS News and we publish a magazine to every house in the
village each month at no charge. Doing this requires our small team
to be aware of what is going on in the Village and endeavouring to
keep resident informed. July 2022 edition attached.
The Boundary Change between Kingston Bagpuize with Southmoor Parish
and Fyfield & Tubney Parish is a completely sensible
request.
The land in question is divided from Fyfield Village by the Dual
carriageway A420 but abuts directly onto Kingston Bagpuize
Village.
The VOWHDC is currently considering a planning application to
build, on the land covered by the requested Boundary Change, 660
houses, an extra care development of up to 70 units, a local centre
of up to 0.5ha, a one form entry primary school on an area for
educational provision of up to 2.2ha, playing field and car
parking, informal open space. The application is entitled Land East
of Kingston Bagpuize. Not South of Fyfield.
Both Parishes have expressed their objection to the development but
it is clear that at some point in the near future the building will
go ahead.
Fyfield Village has a Church and a Pub but no other facilities
whereas Kingston Bagpuize with Southmoor has 2 Coop shops, one of
which includes a post office, a One Stop shop, a Village hall, a
public park area (the Millennium Green), a Tennis Club, a Bowls
Club, a Football Club, a Cricket Club, a Scouting Group and many
clubs and societies. We also have a Pub and a Church.
The proposed planning application includes connecting all the new
properties to Thames Water's sewage plant in Southmoor. None of the
Fyfield and Tubney properties do this.
Fyfield is a delightful village but it is obvious that if the
proposed development goes ahead the new residents will want to use
Kingston Bagpuize with Southmoor facilities. Many of the present
Fyfield and Tubney residents already do.
It is obvious that the boundary should be changed to bring
everything under the Kingston Bagpuize with SouthmoorParish.
It appears that the VOWHDC Planning dept believe the new
development will be part of Kingston Bagpuize with Southmoor having
recently asked the Parish Council to consider whether it will be
prepared to adopt the proposed Public open spaces, Sports field and
Pavilion should the planning application be approved.

The Parish Council
has previously vigorously opposed this change and fully supports
the decision not to make the change.
Conformation of our opposition is detailed in the attached
document.

If it changes risk
of more houses being built and don’t have infrastructure to
deal with it
|

it's ridiculous to
move this boundary to make kbs even bigger when we have no local
surgery, schools are maxed out busses are worse than useless no
pharmacy services or post office choosing which day they fancy
opening!
|
|

|
As the boundary
change will lead to a huge housing development in the area with
lots of wildlife and no infrastructure to support the influx of
people it is not acceptable

Why not leave as
Tubney/ Fyfield? It’s on the edge of KBS actually in
Tubney/Fyfield and would make more sense to leave in the current
parish. KBS has quadrupled in size in the last 6 yrs. the other
parish hasn’t. Even some of the KBS is classed as Longworth
whilst the actual Longworth is the other side of the A420 to KBS.
Very stupid and confusing for delivery drivers - now the PC wants
to stick Tubney in too. The PC would be better changing the
boundary from Longworth to Southmoor at the Faringdon end of the
village so that longworth is on one side only of the A420. But no
they’re dipping in somewhere else instead of sorting out
existing issues. I want to live in a village not a small town which
KBS is becoming. KBS roads are busier, yet no more facilities such
as doctors or dentist or even a chemist. Keep it as it is or are
the Tubney/Fyfield parishioners with money worried a new estate in
their small tiny parish will suffer on their house prices?

The villages are
big enough and we have to make sure they do not become one urban
sprawl
|
|
12
|
it would be better
in general
|
|
13
|
To allow essential
services provision to be under control of KBS parish when new homes
are built on the land because the residents will tend to rely on
KBS rather than Fyfield & Tubney.

I oppose the
boundary change. The parishes with Kingston Bagpuize with Southmoor
have had more than their share of housing developments. We do not
need anymore.
|
|

|
If I line with KBS
parish, hopefully no further land development would be granted on
stated plot.
|
|

The village of
Kingston Bagpuize and Southmoor is already large enough.

The recent
developments in KB&S is excessive, especially with no
Appropriate infrastructure in place. The nearest larger supermarket
is many miles away as are facilities for Doctors, Dentists,
Chemist. The road systems with our present SMALL Coop outlet at the
mini roundabout with WitneyRoad on the A415 is likely to result in
a very serious accident that is waiting to happen. The vehicle
access on this route is likely to increase dramatically, with the
changes of large commercial vehicles excess passing through Marcham
- Air Quality, so again the residents of KB&S have to suffer,
if these changes take place. The changes are likely to create
further increase traffic flow.
This change, will again create financial issues with KB&S
Parish Council.
If this change results in the building of 700 further houses, the
changes to the road system requires changing, along with a Medical
Centre, which is apparently not included.
