Received: 07/09/2019

Respondent: Adrian Ives

Representation Summary:

I believe an application for residential development on this land was previously submitted to Colwyn Borough Council. The access to the development was along Ffordd Triban and the application was refused on the grounds that the carriageway was too narrow to accommodate the resulting increased traffic flow.
The land now earmarked for inclusion on the RLDP makes no provision for alternative access. In view of the refused application to develop, this would result in the land being inaccessible and I am confounded as to why it would even be considered for inclusion unless the previous application had been overlooked.

Change suggested by respondent:

In consideration of my representation, I request that Site Reference 5: Land at Pen-y-Waen farm, be removed from the Replacement Local Development Plan.
