Received: 05/09/2019

Respondent: Mrs Vanessa DYE

Representation Summary:

Whilst we appreciate the need for housing; BUT building 400 new houses will have huge implications on Llanfairfechan.
For example:
Has the doctor's surgery been consulted.
The impact on Ysbyty Gwynedd.
Are police services geared up.
How will the traffic be organised.
The existing sewerage system is very old and will require a major overhaul.
We would query the demand for even more properties.
The idea that it will supply more 'affordable' housing is somewhat mythical.
This development will also impact on the local environment with the loss of yet another piece of green belt.

Change suggested by respondent:

We hope these concerns are taken into account before you arrive at any decisions regarding the development. Your ability to act and influence how this development goes ahead is needed now. We hope you are able to act for the benefit of the local are, the community and the environment.

Our response:

Noted. The site capacity has been reduced to approx 250 dwellings due to other constraints that have been identified.
The local health board and Public Health Wales have been consulted on, and CCBC Planning Officers are working alongside officers there to ensure that any impact on health services are fully considered and land will be allocated where necessary. It is up to the Health Board in discussion and consultation with local GPs to determine the format of provision and resolve any staffing issues.
Highways surveys and assessments will be required and mitigation will be put into place where necessary.
An element of the dwellings provided on-site will be affordable housing and managed by local RSLs.
