Following my earlier blog post "Not to Let in Manzil Way" about the 20 empty apartments in the Manzil Way Health Centre (built under PFI) - they've just appeared on the private market. (See http://premieroxford.co.uk/product_details.php?&product_id=913)
This despite a planning condition fought for by Green councillors that the apartments should be affordable for the use of medical staff and other key workers. (See planning condition 7 at : http://planning.oxford.gov.uk/WAM/doc/Decision-580829.pdf?extension=.pdf&id=580829&appid=911&location=VOLUME1&contentType=application/pdf&pageCount=7)
The cynicism of the developer is astounding - it's an insult to the citizens of Oxford that its planning decisions should be treated with such disdain.
It's thanks to outgoing Green councillor Craig Simmons that this has been picked up. I sincerely hope that any future planning applications from the developer in question are refused on principle.
