Planning Application Meeting 10th January

December 22, 2012

Well, the next phase is underway.

Rapleys Commercial Property & Planning Consultants are acting on behalf of Taylor Wimpey and are organising a public exhibition of their new plans for Oxley Woods.

If you’re interested in the future of Oxley Woods, you should be there.

But remember, you DO NOT have to offer any preference, opinion, or views at all, especially if there is not one that perfectly matches your own personal views. Watch out for those tricks, again.

However, we really hope there’ll be something positive and this time around Wimpey have listen to our concerns and wont be trying more off-the-shelf shoe boxes instead of carrying on in the spirit of our award winning development.

So, Thursday 10th January 2013 between 15:30 and 21:00 at Oxley Park Community Centre, Redgrave Drive, Oxley Park is the date for your diaries.

The Signs Are Up

December 19, 2011

Updated, planning details can be found online at MK Partnership, click here to see the planning details.

You may have noticed that some pink signs are up on a couple of lamposts in Milland Way, a week after the submission to trash Oxley Woods arrived from Wimpey.

Go read them.

Then please object, object in the strongest terms.

At the time of writing we still cannot find any details of the application online, which we thought would be become available via the online planning portal system. Perhaps this is different as its a builder just looking to do what they want and add a couple of new hoses, so therefore doesn’t have to go through the same level of scrutiny as if an individual wanted to put up a small outhouse or something? I don’t know.

You can read the BBC website article and listen in to the radio show live on Saturday 13th and Wednesday 17th August, as well as on BBC iPlayer.

Egg-cellent news from a neighbour

August 9, 2011

Yep, couldn’t avoid that pun, as much as I tried (which wasn’t very hard, to be honest).

Great news! You can now purchase free range eggs in Oxley Woods. They’re not from chickens that live on the estate, but they come from very close by and are cared for by our neighbours. So there’s low food mileage and supporting a small local enterprise providing at least two good reasons to buy.

For more details on how to place an order, please see the forum classifieds, here: Free Range Eggs For Sale.

Oxley Woods Big Lunch a big success

June 18, 2011

The first Oxley Woods Big Lunch took place a little while back, and it was an all out success.

Members of the community, both long standing and more recently settled residents came together, despite the dubious weather, and a jolly good time was had by all, young and old!

Many thanks must go to the team of people who helped put the day together, I hope you all feel very proud of your contribution to our fledgling community!

You can check out some photos of the day via our Flickr link at the top of the page, and even more over at a fellow resident’s flickr page.
