The impact of significant strategic sites on adjacent land holdings is ill thought out. Extensive residential development leads to a more intensive use of footpaths, the most notable consequence being an increase cost in ownership and management of land holdings.

A much more concerning prospect is that farmers are forced to alter the way they farm in the face of the onslaught of dog walkers. These farms become less and less viable as a consequence, which puts pressure on those farming communities which are often multi-generational and predominantly Welsh speaking.

Accepted in principle. Development briefs for Strategic Sites should consider impact on adjacent and nearby countryside. This should be done in consultation with the Biodiversity Officer and Countryside officers when drawing up a draft brief which will then be subject to public consultation.
