Oxfordshire respond to application

Oxfordshire County Council have written to SENDRA confirming receipt of our application for a town green. In their letter of 3rd November the County Council confirmed they had received our application on the 29th September and the matter has now been referred to the council's legal department.

The letter explains the County Council will be referring the application to a barrister to check if it has been "duly made". This process should take some weeks.

If the application passes this hurdle then the County Council will publicise the application for a further six weeks, asking if anyone objects to the application. The County Council will also write to the landowner - who in this case are the city council. 

So progress, albeit a bit slower than we hoped, and its not quite clear what has happened over the last few weeks, but we have a timetable for the next steps.
