IN SCENES reminiscent of the Handforth Parish Council meeting which took the internet by storm earlier this year, a councillor was removed from a virtual meeting. The Carterton Town Council meeting on Tuesday descended into chaos after its former mayor was removed while she was speaking. Lynn Little said she was ‘chopped off after raising concerns about an application on the agenda’ therefore her vote was ‘not able to count’. Earlier this year, a bitter row between Mrs Little and the council was resolved after accusations of her misappropriating public funds were dismissed. Meanwhile, the town’s current mayor, Nick Leverton, said that allegations of bullying made by Mrs Little were found to be unfounded and that case also dismissed.

PLANS for more than 70 new houses have been approved despite an objection from the police. On Monday, West Oxfordshire District Council’s (WODC) lowlands area planning sub-committee gave the green light for 72 new homes on land east of Swinbrook Road, Carterton. The application from Exeter-based Burrington Estates had received 24 letters of objection, in addition to disapproval from Thames Valley Police (TVP). When consulted about the proposal, the force’s crime prevention design advisor noted: “Unfortunately I am unable to support the application at this time as some aspects of the design and layout are problematic in terms of crime and anti-social behaviour.”
