Conveyancing in Oxford, OX2 – local issues

If you are looking for buy or sell a property in Oxford, attention to detail is perhaps the most important thing, and our Conveyancing Solicitors in Oxford have all the necessary skills and experience to spot potential complications before they become an issue.

Fire safety in Oxford

Oxford has had a recent period of dry weather and the fire & rescue service are advising residents to exercise extra caution to prevent fires. The warm weather has caused vegetation to dry out and as a result, grass verges, crop fields and woodland can easily catch light if people are careless with cigarettes or don't extinguish fires or barbecues properly. Fires of this type can rapidly spread out of control, putting peoples’ lives, wildlife and property at risk.

Reduction of CO2 emissions in Oxford

Oxford council has a carbon management programme in place to reduce operational carbon emissions. The council has implemented a series of measures over the last three years to reduce carbon dioxide emissions associated with its energy and fuel consumption.  This has been achieved through technical fixes such as low energy lighting systems, insulation measures to reduce heat loss from buildings, installation of pool covers and variable speed drives at its leisure centres and the development of active energy management approaches. 

Oxford community and housing development

Oxford council has invested in a multi-million pound development project to provide 109 new homes and community facilities to aid in making Oxford a successful and sustainable community. A period of public consultation has been scheduled and will lead to a planning application towards the end of this year, with building works to start in 2012 and completion anticipated by early 2015.

Garden waste and composting

Oxford has implemented a new brown bin collection service for garden waste and composting. The goal of this new initiative is to help the environment and the overall health of residents.
