We were assured that the Bertie Park consultation was due any day. Now there is yet another delay. Could this be anything to do with the upcoming elections?
Wanting to understand, we sent some questions to the council. They replied we are “not able to go into the detail you are requesting at the moment”. Here are the really tough questions that Oxford City Council do not want to answer:

OCC say that they will share the information with the community “at the appropriate time in the future”. Would that appropriate time be after the election?
We would like the council not to treat us as enemies, or to blame us for the problems that they are having with the Bertie Park development. All we have done is point out what is in the agreed local plan and draw the attention of the council to its own policies.
