Preferred Strategy

Representation ID: 28245

Received: 20/09/2019

Respondent: Mrs Helen Dean

Representation Summary:

The proposal was previously rejectged due to it being in open countryside and traffic issues.
Llanelian Road is regularly backed up from the roundabout at all times of the day, school times are crazy and match days cause absolute chaos.
Our one and only GP surgery has already had to take on additional patients, getting an appointment is difficult.
What people need is affordable homes to suit the average wage earned in Wales.
Could the Council consider applying a hefty levy on 2nd homes.

Our response:

Noted - The concerns are recognised and will be addressed through various measures put in place during the planning process, for example following the recommendations of Transport Assessments as agreed with the Council's Highways officers, the provision of monies from developers towards schools where this is needed and land for a satellite surgery subject to the Healthboard's needs. The Health Board have been consulted. Comments from the Biodiversity and Countryside officer will be taken into account at the development brief/pre-planning application stage, but we will work on the principles of retaining as many natural features of the site as possible, e.g. Trees, hedgerows etc.
